With its sweet creaminess and luxurious blueberries, Mindless Philosopher is the indulgent Imperial Porter you're looking for. The perfect marriage of 300kg of Columbian Cacao and a perfect blend of European and American blueberries totalling 400kg in all, this is the beer you've been waiting for. As soon as you open the can, the aromas hit you, letting you know this is a beer to be savoured. Be careful though, one sip can lead to many more....and you don't want C3PO calling YOU an overweight glob of grease!

Blik gedeeld door Roelzie, geprobeerd met Benzai en Keukenman. Het is een diep donkerbruin tot zwart bier. Het heeft een aroma van gebrande mout en bosvruchten. De smaak is vol gebrande mout, gedroogd fruit, bosbessen en casis.

Nose is more like Neapolitan ice cream, with strawberry and vanilla chocolate accents, taste turns blueberry with vanilla lactose sweetness, sweet chocolate, vanilla flakes, medium plus body, sweet lingering dark malty into the close.
