You are holding a pure artisan craft ale, free of any additives. This is a real ale. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, so a small amount of sediment in the bottom of the bottle is natural. South Plains RIP is made with North American hops to balance the huge amounts of English malts that give this dark ale it’s complex and generous flavor. Imperial Porter is a style that is higher in alcohol, bearing more flavor than traditional porters. Store this beer in a cool, dark place. When it’s young it’s very heartwarming. As it ages it will get smoother and smoother.

Bottle. It’s a more or less black one, hardly any brown color at all. The head is quite small, beige in color. It’s quite burnt on the nose, with licorice notes and some dried fruits. Roasted malts, burnt hints, licorice and dried fruits, with a roasted kind of bitterness. Full body, semi-sweet, and with a pleasant carbonation. A pleasant one indeed, although a bit one tracked. 130215

330ml Bottle - Black with a foamy head. Liquorice, coffee, dried fruit and soapy hops in the aroma. Coffee, plain chocolate, soapy hops and roasted malt can all be detected in the taste, with a bit of liquorice in the finish. Tasty, rich and indulgent, yet very easy to drink.
