Russian Imperial Stout
Una cerveza que no olvidarás, una vez la pruebes soñarás con enrolarte en el oscuro ejército tovarisch. De profundo color negro opaco de cuerpo medio alto y cremoso. Marcado aroma tostado y torrefacto que se envuelve en toques licorosos y de frutos secos. Contundente y compleja en sabor con predominio de notas a café y chocolate con un amargor ligero y sutil en retrogusto.

Draft sample @ ACBF’15. Noire foncée, col blanc-cassé. Arôme est malté, caramel et chocolaté avec une belle sensation de douceur et un léger rétro-nasal houblonné. Palais est centré sur les malts, note épicée avec un profil assez euro surtout das les malts. Notes houblonnées ajoutent cette pointe d’épice. Le tout reste conséquent en alcool avec un fini chocolaté et réchauffant. Ce fini tire un peu sur le doux avec une impression dark crystal.

Sampled bottled @ ACBF 2015. Black little mocha. Nose is thick mocha, umami, quite heavy on the roast & umami sweetness. Taste is soy sauce, mocha, interestingly thick herbal character, lots of mocha & lightly boozy. Thick body. Quite interesting but nowhere near as good as the BA versions. This is a superb base beer evidently but doesn’t stand out that much on its own. (Thanks for sharing people!!!)

Black color with a quickly diminishing tan head. Aroma has notes of toasted malts, sweet hints, burnt bread with vanilla notes. Flavor is toasty and roasty, alcohol very good integrated with sweet notes, vanilla and burnt sugar notes. Light creamy nouthfeel with slightly sweet and roasty notes on palate.

Pitch black. 1 finger espresso colored, very dense head. Aroma is fudge, chocolate and caramel candies with charred oak. taste is intensely smokey with vanilla and more fudge. You can taste every bit of the whiskey and booze in this. Not well integrated but very interesting
