A massive, roasted, malt-forward American Trappist take on the Anglo-Russo Imperial Stout tradition. Luxuriantly frothy foam, waves of coffee, chocolate and caramel sensations, a generous blend of dark fruit flavors. Intense and robust.

The aromas are caramel malt, dark malt, black patent, roast, and a little barnyard. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, barnyard drops to the back, nice portrayal of bitter, sweet, with the roast toast and cocoa coming out. Great body and carbonation. A little wine in the finish and the barnyard comes out a bit more also.

Bottle, 8.7%. Roasted, citric and fruity aroma. Almost black colour. Seems unclear. Semi-stable light brown head. The flavour is roasted, fruity, vinous, sweetish with a fruity, roasted and jammy finish. Hoppy notes and a late mild coffee aftertaste.

Bottle from Holyart in Roma. Piana sporawa lekko bezowa, trwala i lekko czapowata. Ciemne nie przejrzyste, o sporej dawce surowej i deserowej czekoladzie, podbite ciemna sliwka, tiramisu i skapane mocna kawa z ekspresu. Wytrawny i palony posmak, dobre choc z butow nie wyrywa. ale i tak porzadnegoi i pierwszego RISa zrobili trapisci i to amerykanscy i chwala im za to

A 75 cl bottle obtained from the decent folks at the Rare Beer Club some months ago. I have a coolish, breezy early evening to bring this big bottle out to sample. The New Belgium globe glass is arrayed and the pour is delivered. A thick, dark brown-black body arrives topped by a glorious head of very finely bubbled, yellow-tan foam. I like the smell, strawberry, chocolate and wheat bread. The taste is coffee, toast, some char, dark chocolate, berries and dark chocolate. The sensation is thinner than expected but whatever. Good but not transcendent.
