Medium tan head over almost black beer. Nutty, black cardamome - very outspoken - toffee, nearly treacle. Bitter chocolate and again black cardamome, if less prominent. Dark malts, melanoidins. Very full bodied, alcoholwarming, well carbonated. Quite good Imperial Stout - another one from Austria, of all places. Txs to Stef!

Bottle picked up from Biertemple Linz. Had this at home Friday 8th September 2023, sat outside looking at the stars after another fantastic day listening to Afrodeutscha on 6Music. Pours shark eye black color with a mid sized light beige head. Plenty of roasted malts on the nose coupled with chocolate a tangy note and some coffee. The taste following a similar trajectory, it's a very smooth and classic impy stout, with the roasted malts leading the way again, providing a nice roasty bitter edge, good dark chocolate, the tanginess is there, coffee a little muted, a little liquorice here as well. After some recent disappointments on the impy stout scene for me, this beer shows how it should be done, it's a no nonsense excellent example of the style.

EIn wirklich angenehm tiefgründigen dunklen Aromen nach extremer Bitterschokolade und etwas Kaffeesud. Das Bier ist tiefschwarz und hat kaum Schaum. Es ist nicht einfach zu trinken, aber dafür umso interessanter und hat mir wirklich gut gefallen.

Bottle (BB 10/2020), huge thanks Hrabren! Shared with him and Ogivlado. Daaark brown body, tiny off white head. Creamy aroma, nutty, orange, grainy, some mild alcohol, caramel, hmmm... Very nice really! Lean, sweetish herbal-orange, soapy, some cocoa, big bitterness, bigger alcohol... not really on the same level as the taste, fairly complex, but oddly balanced. Soooo close to greatness, but fails really in the taste.

RB backlog. Non-sticky but potent sweetness, sourish, light roasty bitter notes. Slick body, soft carbonation. Good, hides its strength well, lacks a bit of depth to catapult it even higher.
