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.

Bottle @ Fox & Hounds, Sønderborg. Pours hazy dark brown with stable light tan head. Clear aroma of dried fruit, yeast and malt, with very mild roasty notes. Hoppy and roasty onset, complemented by citric notes and touches of yeast and malt. Hints of liquorice and fruit. Roasty and coffeelike aftertaste with estery and acidic touches. Not bad!

Nagy, barna, tartós hab, fekete szín. Kávés, kakaós, aszalt szilvás-meggyes illat. Kávés, kakaós, fekete csokis ízek, aszalt szilvás beütéssel és némi aszalt meggyel. Testes, száraz, közepesen keserű, enyhén szénsavas. Finom, jó arányokkal rendelkező sör.

Certainly nailed the Belgian vibe; fruity yeast esters offset unsweetened chocolate and coffee, with some caramel, raisin, and cascara beneath. Finishes super-dry and roasty. Somewhat metallic, and the esters really start to take over as it warms. Not bad, but not my thing, either.

Jet black pour with a thin light beige head that recedes steadily to a film. Small patches of lace. Aroma of roast malt, chocolate and anise. Medium body with flavors of slightly smokey malt, bittersweet chocolate and touches of fruit and earthy hops. The finish is roasty with a malty aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
