Black with a brown head - Huge caramel aroma with some nutty aroma as well - Malt body with caramel flavour with hints of choclate and coffee - The caramel flavour goes into the finish with some hints of chocolate and coffee with hints of bitterness in the back - This was good

330ml can. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aroma of intense caramel filling the whole room, chocolate. Taste is rich, salted caramel, chocolate, cookie dough, very very sweet, cloying. Full bodied, soft carbonation.

330 ml can, Christmas 2018, from Vinmonopolet. ABV is 10.5%. Black colour, minimal tan head. Intense aroma of salted caramel, also chocolate chip cookies. Very moderate carbonation. The flavour is also full of salted caramel and chocolate chip cookies, including vanilla. Sweet, but not too much. Pretty far away from any \"normal\" imperial stout, but still good.

Can. An oily pour reveals an unclear dark brown body and a small, dark beige to tan head. Super-sweet aroma with caramel sauce in abundance, chocolate, coffee and a touch of dark rye bread and prunes, even some licorice. It's full-bodied, lightly warming and rather sticky-sweet on the palate, very softly carbonated, with some bitterness lurking in the far back of the flavor. Sweet caramel sauce, Maryland cookies, chocolate, coffee notes, some prunes and rye bread hints in the flavor. Lasting sweet caramel finish. An intense beer, but sure tasteful. Drinking a can alone could be a challenge I guess. 181226

Can. Dark brown with very small frothy beige head, sweet chocolate chip cookies flavor (honestly!), low carbonation, sweet mocha-chocolate taste with cookies flavor, thin body, long finish. It’s like drinking liquid cookies.

Territorio olfattivo dominato dal caramello. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma è destinato a vita breve. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è nella media. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra impegnativa. Al palato arrivano indizi di zucchero caramellato, caramello e creme caramel.

330ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Almost black in the glass under a covering tan-coloured head. Spotty lacing. Lovely aromas of mocha chocolate and caramel. Taste of caramel, coconuts, and chocolate. Ends warming and sweet-salty. Oily palate. Great aroma, a bit unvaried taste profile. Still a decent Yuletide sipper. (Tromsø 21.12.2018).
