Black Monster is a development of our very popular Imperial Stout. Imperial Stout is a dark beer of 8%. It has been proven again and again that with this beer has hit a segment of consumers who appreciate the mild taste of this heavy beer.

Aarhus Brewery Black Monster 10% is brewed from the best malts and the most precious aroma hops. Afterwards, the beer is stored in rum barrels. After the first storing, the beer is returned to the tank to storage, with added oak chips and fresh hops.
The taste of this exotic beer are stronger, marked especially by the rum and the extra added aroma hops in the storage tank.
There are tapped an extremely limited edition of this exclusive beers, which from today will be available at the brewery. We will then begin distribution exclusively to the specialist trade and a few restaurateurs in Århus.

Tap @ Fermentoren, Aarhus. Pours a pitch black with a medium, light brown head. Aromas of whisky, hazelnuts, some dark roasted coffee, caramel and some dark chocolate. Some sour almost calvados-like notes. Taste is pretty bittersweet up front, whisky and some bourbon and calvados-like notes. Guess it's not since it's aged on neither. Lol. Has very roasted dry coffee-finish with some sweetness to it. Pretty weak mouthfeel, sadly. Could've been much better.

Black color with a fine beige head. Good lacing. Ok intensity in the aroma. Full body and a soft carbonation level. Semi dry ending. Oak, roast, toffee, mild vanilla and some licorice in the flavor. Nice tasty sipper. One more please.
