On tap at the brewpub. Dark, dark amber, close to mahogany in colour, with an beige to yellowish head. Malty and caramelly aroma with mild hoppy notes, some dried fruits and hints of dried citrus, alcohol and herbs. Sweet and caramelly with a modest bitterness. Feels still somewhat balanced, but a bit too much on the sweet side. Listed as ’Amber’ so i guess ’Imperial Amber’ might be fitting. Quite pleasant winter warmer if you like the sweet stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Red Herring on 21 Dec 2015 at 18:32 - Score: 6
