Imperial Viietnamese Coffee Milk Porter. Think chocolate fondant meets coffee. Loaded with Vietnamese coffee beans; it’s dark and full bodied with sweet nutty chocolate notes. Good Morning Vietnam!

Panda thanks to Cloin. Near opaque dark brown beer, tidy darkish tan head. Earthy coffee snout. Smooth palate, mildly dry, good superfine minerally carbonation. Smooth dark malts add a pleasant and slightly sweet dark chocolate undertone to smooth and rich coffee, some earthyness carrying over from the nose. Creamy dark malt notes, nice Cappuccino and some candy nut things going on on the light finish. Super duper. Does what it says on the tim and does it with aplomb. Could drink a lot of this, which for an 8% dark beer, is it's own compliment.

Pitch black topped with a lasting khaki head.
Nose is coffee bean, milk chocolate, caramel, toasted brown sugars, mellow roast.
Taste comprises coffee late, light spice, chocolate, caramel wafer, toasted brown sugars.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, light drying close with a subtle rising boost.
Solid well balanced and flavoursome impy affair.

Can thanks to cgarvieuk. Pours black with a thick tan head. Aromas of coffee, nuts and chocolate. Taste is more of the same. Rich texture, coffee linger.
