@Borefts. Another imperial gem from the Struise. Complex and rich beer with notes of coffee, dark cacao, dark fruits and a smooth layer of whisky. Great.

Tap at the Schoolhouse. Pitch black, glowing, with what might be the most beautiful head I have ever seen. Nose of fruit, berries, coffee, chocolate, wood. Sweet berry and chocolate flavor, then coffee, wood, burnt malt, fabulous. Barrel comes through, but not whiskey specifically.

Draft @ Struise Brugge shop. Reprend ici la base de la Black Albert, noire épais visqueux, col crémeux beige-moka, laissant un filament doré au verre. Ici aussi un rajout subtile de Subtile mûres avec une effluve de whisky restant modérée. Ici le tout se prête bien au profile de Black Albert, ajout de fruits noirs sur une bière présentant déjà un penchant pour un côté massif malté chocolaté avec un petit cote tourbe venant du whisky, boise reste en retrait. Le tout est agrémenté de ces mûres qui donne un fini fruits des bois présentant une pointe aigre qui dans cette version bénéficie de ce mûrissage en barrique whisky. Reste un stout bien solide dans la lignée directe de Black Albert.

Draft tasting glass @ Struise Shop in Brugge. Quite dark brown / black with a quite a big of mocha head, slightly sinking. Chocolate, mocha, cacao, sweet dark fruits, sweet in general, picking up on the standard Black Albert profile with some whisky riding on top, peated, is that correct? Peated in a very balanced way, nice, complimenting, dark berries (general), mocha, chocolate, sweet, fruity, cacoa, dark sugar, sweet coffee, fruity,… bit of complimenting booze in the back. Touch creamy,…med full. Lovely variation upon the Black Albert.
