0.33 l bottle from 'Speciaalbierpakket.nl'. Pitch black with a medium large, frothy, stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, powdery, gently roasty aroma of coffee, cocoa and a touch of dark fruits. Gently sweet, malty, quite roasty taste of quite some coffee, cocoa, a touch of dark fruits and hints of vanilla, followed by a long, fairly roasty-bitter, gently earthy, moderately dry finish with traces of whisky. Medium to full body, rather effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Solid Imperial Stout, unfortunately too effervescent and only hints of whisky. Rather simple overall, not very complex but quite saturating at least. Doesn't really benefit from the barrel aging, actually the base beer itself was more convincing.
