Bottle. Black label, single batch brew-limited edition, rezept 005, 10,9%, bbf apr 2021. Color: Almost black, brown head. Taste: Dark roasted malt, espresso, licorice (lakrids), rye, very bitter. Pretty dry mouthfeel with noticeably high alcohol percentage. Long bitter and earthy finish. A firm imperial stout, to enjoy sipping at a relaxing evening. Full body and below medium carbonation. Just a bit too much taste of licorice for me, but overall a very nice beer.

On tap at Basement Beer Bar. A big dark beige head settled on top of a black body. The aroma is on the roasted side, with some licorice and alcohol, oat, coffee and a touch of heavy caramel sauce. The caramel sauce is very dominant in the mouth, but there’s still plenty of room for roasted malts and oats, licorice and coffee. There’s some alcohol too. It’s full bodied, warming and smoothly carbonated, lightly sticky on the palate. Everlasting caramel sauce, licorice, coffee and roasted malts finish, with the coffee more pronounced as the beer warms up slightly. Perhaps a bit alcoholic for the ABV, but it’s a tasteful and complex beer I wouldn’t mind having again on a later occasion. 160622

Bottle, 10.9%. Fruity aroma, roasted with some ashes and citric coffee. Black colour. Big stable light brown head. The flavour is roasted, syrupy sweet. Has a distinct bitterness. Very late coffee and liquorice bitterness. Good grassy hop flavour as well.
