Together with the people from Frontaal we've brewed this amazingly smooth beer that you're going to want to try!
This brew contained a triple mash, one of which was a cold steep with all the dark malts to get a super smooth roasty coffee profile. The beer was then dry-hopped with the new experimental hops from Yakima, HBC472, which gives an oaky and earthy notes to the beer.
The beer itself is super smooth, fruity, coffee and lightbodied for an excellent summer evening vibe.

Batch 235. Pours thick, black, with lots of dense tan head. Smells roasty, some coffee. Pretty thick, sticky and soft, some light carbonation. Taste is nicely roast, but still quite sweet (no surprise with Moersleutel, but still), nice linger.

L'houblonnage à cru (HBC-427) effectué sur cet Imperial Stout lui donne un caractère tout particulier où le houblon s'exprime davantage que sur les classiques. Intéressant, mais personnellement, cela n'a pas ma préférence, car ce n'est pas ce que je recherche sur un Imperial Stout. L'ensemble reste de très bonne facture cependant, De Moersleutel sachant réaliser des Imperial Stout puissants et intenses. Celui-ci est un brin trop sucré toutefois, mais l'équilibre est bien trouvé avec un alcool bien intégré, restant chaleureux sans agresser et en soutenant parfaitement la structure. Le visuel est sur un noir total avec une mousse brune s'estompant rapidement. Au nez, ça pète le café, chocolat avec des touches de réglisse et de cerise. En bouche c'est généreux, sur une bonne intensité même si le sucre est un peu surdosé pour moi. Sur l'attaque, le côté fruité apparaît avec des agrumes qui accompagnent le café et le chocolat. De légères herbes et du poivre arrivent également. En deuxième bouche le côté fruité prend l'ascendant avec des arômes de charbon et une légère astringence qui apparaissent. Les arômes de café et chocolat reprennent les devants en arrière-bouche, les fruits venants en rétro. La corpulence est excellente. Le final, long, reste sur une excellente intensité. Une excellente base d'Impie, mais un houblonnage à cru qui dissone selon moi.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours black-brown with a creamy, tan head. Medium sweet flavour, meaty dark malts, roast, some pine, citrus rind, dark fruits, raisins. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Mellow warmth in the finish, a little ashy roast, raisins, earth, cocoa, pine. Very nice.

Can in the garden, 8th September 2021. Two heavy hitters from the Dutch scene, this has to be great. Pours a black stout, tan head. Aroma is liquorice, roasted malts, dark chocolate, hoppy. Taste is bitter, cocoa, liquorice, loads of roasted malts, liquor, buttering hops, lots of hops, lovely, almost licking on the Cloudwater Black Tipas, this is a great hoppy imperial stout, I love the way it’s not too sweet and the hoppy bitter kick

Black beer, thick foamy brown head. Hefty blend of dry hops and malt in the smell. Flavour has plenty of dry hop too along with toasty malt, dark chocolate, a little liquorice and brown sugar. Well balanced, full bodied, just the right amount of boozy warmth.
