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!

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 21/04/24. Pitch black with a good sized khaki head that thins to a swirl in time. Nose is chocolate, blueberry syrup, sugars, blueberry pancakes, brown sugar melt. Taste comprises less of the blueberry brutality that the nose portrayed (thankfully), chocolate, spice, dark malts, molasses. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol. Emperor needs to polish up on his fucken mind tricks ... not really convincing me with this !!! Not terrible but the nose was not great.

Can. Opaque dark brown black beer, small tan head. Nose screams blueberry. Smooth softish palate, decent fine carbonation. Slightly thin dark malts, a good creamy sweetness, a little dark chocolate. Some alcohol spice. Mahooosive floral blueberry, intense blueberry, more feckin blueberry. Light finish. A long strong blueberry linger, that is also slightly bitter. Very fucken blueberry.

Black beer, thin tan head. Smell has the blueberries, vanilla, a little lactose. Flavour has a good whack of dank blueberry, slightly bitter cocoa, vanilla, malt, a bit of lactose. Maybe a bit too much lactose, but it doesn't kill it, there's enough balance of the other flavours to keep it in check. Rich, warming and a little boozy in the finish. Very nice.
