Bottle. A more or less black one, topped by a small, creamy, dark tan head. Roasted nose with some cooked vegetables underneath. Chocolate, coffee and some cocoa. Lightly warming on the palate, full-bodied and sweetish, with chocolate, coffee and roasted malts flavors. Some roasted kind of bitterness in the end, which is much more warming than initially. A quite decent imp stout from a country I guess those are scarce. 120817

21/07 RBESG Grand Tasting, 0.33 l bottle. Happy to see such a rare beer here, reportedly 100 l brewed only, at least at the moment. It poured pitch black body with small brown head. Sourish aroma, herbal hops, but dark roasted malts were dominating anyway. Flavor was similar, slightly sweet but also bitter, with whole palette of malty flavors like coffee, caramel, burnt sugar, bread, chocolate. Spiced up with those pleasant sourish herbal hops, which gave nice combo with coffee. Full in body with pleasant bittersweet finish, chocolate and only a little bit of alcohol warming. Four, here we go!

Bottle at the Semi-Final Tasting, my place in London. Big thanks to Imro for sending this one to me! Pours thick black with a heavy, brown cream. Looks great. Nose has some tangy dark malts and mild roast. Flavor is medium sweet with dusty cocoa and dark chocolate, mild tang, bittersweet cocoa and bitter earth. Medium to full bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Mild warmth in the finish, some burnt earth, charcoal, burnt grass, mild meat, tangy dark malts, bittersweet baking cocoa. A very good impy stout. Cool to have tried the best Slovak beer available.
