Міцний та зігріваючий характер цього пива доповнюється кавово-шоколадними ароматами, нотами бурбону, легкою солодкістю ванілі з відтінками кокосу.

500ml (thx, Dima!) @ home shared with Andrey. ABV is 8.4%, not 10% as in specs here. Appearance: almost black with a beige head. Aroma: sweet, chocolate, brown sugar, dark fruits, some roasted malts, no bourbon or wood, though. Taste: totally along the same lines with apples, nail polisher, herbal characters, some notes of ash that's probably coming from a bourbon barrel. Somewhat more corbanoted than usual. Overall: well, it sounds good, looks good, but it tastes way far from the great examples of Imperial Stouts, especially North American ones. I also may assume it is infected cause of the higher carbonation, apple, and nail polisher notes in taste; it may become much more evident within time.
Opaque deep brown, beige head. Strong spirit / Bourbon aroma, inky dark malts. Humble dark malts, humble body and intensity. Too much Bourbon, too little stout.
