Roasted malts, hedgerow fruit, espresso and liquorice. Big, black and wholesome; This is beer with soul! Naturally bottle conditioned it is secondary fermented in the bottle in a similar way to the production of champagne. This beer is made from 4 pure organic ingredients, malted barley, water, hops and yeast. It is full of vitamin B and good for you.

330 ml. bottle split by two. I enjoyed “Black Isle Hibernator III” but this one didn’t appeal at all to me. Pours flat no head ruby red wine hued black. Nose is pure soy sauce, umami, varnish, medicinal roots. Unpleasant flat soy sauce, varnish, liquorice, soy sauce, lacking carbonation medicinal roots unpleasant lingering affair. Yikes.

Bottle. Pours opaque deep brown to black with modest well-lacing ivory head. Rich malts & oats on nose. Moderately roasty. Hints of coffee. Bit vinous. Medium body, smooth mouth feel. Medium dry to medium sweet taste. Pleasantly roasty, vinous, light fruitiness. The alcohol contain is perfectly hidden. Light bitterness on ending. This is an excellent stout. Just don’t put it into the category of impies.
