Can from the Virtual Salford Independent Beer Festival box for the Thursday night. Aroma had sour berries and milk with some malty chocolate and a touch of peanut butter. Darkest brown. Foamy beige head. Medium-heavy bitter - coffee and liqourice. At first there is some nutty sweetness but it is pushed aside. Develops berry sourness. It's into the finish where burnt caramel sweetness sweetness and a touch of creamy chocolate and latent peanut butter appear. However it's the bitterness that is consistent throughout. Medium bodied. Creamy. Average carbonation. If I hadn't been aware that it was supposed to be a peanut butter and chocolate Impy it's fair to say that I would have been more impressed. Those two elements become more evident as it warms up but they are overpowered by the bitterness. Despite this it's still any enjoyable rich beer.
