Ein nicht alltägliches Bier, tiefschwarz, obergärig mit sehr hohem Alkoholgehalt (9,5 %). Dieses edle, schwarze Bier wurde früher von den englischen Brauern als Hofbier für die russische Zarin Katharina II geliefert. Diese außergewöhnliche Bierspezialität wird sehr aufwändig mit 6 verschiedenen Malz- und 3 Hopfensorten eingebraut. Die Reifezeit beträgt mehrere Monate. Ein wahres Geschmacksfeuerwerk wird dominiert von intensiven Kaffee- und Schokoladennoten. Passt wunderbar zu Tiramisu, Mousse au chocolat oder gereiftem Käse.

At a tasting, thanks, long lasting creamy head, very deep brown and almost completely opaque, flavor of dark bread, some chocolate and a charred hint, flavor of chocolate and plums with charcoal coming through adding a pleasant mellow bitterness, quite sweet But not too heavy. Very nice and enjoyable.

Bottle from Werckmeister. Pours deep, dark brown with slightly tan head. Smooth, roasty aroma with chocolate, some coffee, soy sauce, dried fruity, molasses. Dark fruit taste with dark chocolate, a bit of burnt caramel and some light roasty bitterness. Smooth and nice!

0,33l bottle at home shared with Simay, courtesy of Saeglopur, big thanks. BB 04/2017. black color, medium big dark coffee-colored head. smells of roast, ash, some smoke, a bit sourish, coffee, bitter chocolate, some dried fruits, raisins, fruit notes are move obvious after the beer warms up a bit. full body, soft carbonation, slick and creamy mouthfeel. tastes rather sweet, brown sugar, some ash, quite a lot of roast, light smoke, milk chocolate, toffee, also some dried fruits again. finishes with ash and sweetness. rather sweet on the aftertaste. Very lovely beer. Its sweet, but the ash and roast note keep the sweetness quite in check. Just on the aftertaste the sweetness is more obvious. Apart from that very nice beer, not overly complex or too many additives, but I am not a fan of those anyway. Will drink again.

330 ml bottle bought at the brewery.
Black body, with a big, stable, dense, creamy, coffee colored head.
Aroma of coffee, liquorice, cocoa, dark fruits, quite a lot of fruity hops.
Wonderful smooth taste of espresso, cocoa powder, liquorice, dark chocolate, some vanilla, some wood, slight smoke, dark fruits, subtle hops.
Full, creamy mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.
Finishes roasty-bitter, quite dry, but smooth, a bit warm, with coffee, dry cocoa, wood, some dark chocolate.
Great! The taste is really lovely, very smooth, complex and greatly balanced. Alcohol is almost completely hidden. Quite surprising, propably my favourite Imperial Stout from Austria so far!
