Can, 0.50l. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, cottage cheese, berries and nuts. Pours almost black color with thin quickly diminishing light brown head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet and rich roasted malt and milk chocolate, follows by cheesecake, dried fruit and vanilla, mouthfeel is smooth and warm alcoholic, while finish is medium bitter. Full body, thick texture and average carbonation in palate. Imperial diet…

Can from Deconinck. Cloudy black, thin, beige head. Aroma of chocolate bar, dark fudge, mocha, cappuccino, custard, biscuit, vanilla, chocolate jenever, cake, cheesecake. Taste has very sweet date & plum in a very thick malt body of milk chocolate, dark fudge & cake, creamy with a bitterish mocha edge. Herbal hoppy finish drenched in chocolate sauce, butterscotch and some bitter coffee roast. Warming chocolate jenever-like alcohol covered by the big malt body. Full body, oily-sticky texture, soft carbonation. Very excessive, allmost vulgar, but executed pretty well.

Starker Beginn nach Kakao und Schokolade, dabei könnte die milde Bitterkeit gerne stärker sein. Erstaunlich süffig und wenig alkoholisch, konstant schokoladig, cremig. Leicht unterdurchschnittlich karbonisiert, Kakao, Kuchen. Intensiv dunkelmalzig, langer Nachgeschmack. Gut! 10/13/12/12/11/12

Not sure what double imperial actually means. Sweet chocolate nose, but not as sweet in the mouth—well balanced, not really any cheesecake or biscuits per se.

Pitch black,medium brownish head diminished fast. Aroma cacao, chocolate, milk chocolate regarding sweetness in aroma. Flavour, one word; sweet. Bit oversweet. Again chocolate and cacao and that goal of cheesecake is fullfiled. Medium bodied. Alcohol hidden. Not impressed.
