Bottle split at Bespin, thanks to Leighton, 19/09/16. Light black with a moderate tan swirl. Nose is cocoa powder, dark fruit rinds, spice, toffee, biscuit, sour fruit edge. Taste comprises light fruit balsams, chocolate, toffee, tangy fruits, Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Sub par for style, too much tang on the fruit, lacks balance.

33 cl bottle @ hotel room, Rome
Aroma is mild with some cocoa and salty licorice. Flavour is salty and somewhat tart with cocoa, mild rubbery tones, ash and some coffee. Somewhat fizzy palate. The tartness does not fit here and this feels also a bit messy. Also too much salt for me here.

Pitch black color. A lot of molasses, dark chocolate nose, but in the background. The mouth is fairly sour, roasted malts, muddled. Not the best imperial dark whatever.
