Aus der Flasche (bbe 01.12.2029) im 2026-03 getrunken. Dieses Stout ist kein übliches Pastry Stout, denn es zeigt nur ganz fein dosiert sein süssen Einfluss und zwar nur um die kräftige Schokoladenbitterkeit auszugleichen. So minalistisch es als Pastry Stout ist so großartig ist die wunderbare Harmonie der Aromen und dem perfekt eingebundene Alkohol.

Draft at De Paas, Den Haag. Poured almost black in colour with a big, lasting, frothy tan head. The aroma is roasty, caramel, burnt treacle. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a smooth, roasty, creamy, liquorice, dark chocolate, light boozy alcohol bitter palate. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 23/08/2025.
Black with a tan cap that escapes to the edge.
Nose is chocolate, sugars, dark malts, molasses, raisins.
Taste comprises chocolate cake, mellow roast, dates, toffee, brown sugar melt.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow kiss of alcohol.
Tidy enough impy stout if perhaps a little simplistic.

Almost clear but very dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Airy palate, fairly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth dark malts, an impressive bitter sweet tension. Fairly rich amd bitterish dark chocolate underpins a lighter but obvious candy chocolate. Finishes airy and semi dry with a rich fruity chocolate finish. Mild dry coffee runs throughout. Rich and tasty. A challenging Impy for the generation that has grown up with the ubiquitous pastry style. I liked it
