Youngblood’s Imperial Porter is brewed with a wide variety of malted barley and has a rounded chocolate character from the roasted grains. I wanted to explore using many different malts. It’s not for the faint of heart.

Bottle as shown. Pours a dark brown with a small quickly diminishing tan head. The aroma is roasted malt and chocolate. Thin mouthfeel with a smoke and vanilla. Easy to drink a good Baltic porter.

Black muddy body. Brown creamy head. Quite nice aroma of chocolate, coffee and some caramalts: not overwhelming, but interesting aroma. Moderately sweet, lightly bitter flavour: well balanced, nice complexity.

Older bottle thanks to cquiroga. Pours with a black body and a lasting deep brown head. Good lace. Aromas are very vinous and estery, big fig notes, brown sugar, plum, dark fruit, roast, fudge and milk chocolate. Flavors are somewhat oxidized. Roast, vanilla, lots of raisin notes, dark fruits, fig and milk chocolate. On the sweeter side of things. Creamy, mellow and light oxidation. Low carbonation. Good, but was probably better a few years ago.

Süßlicher, stark malziger Antrunk mit leichten, kaum erkennbaren hefenoten. Weiter sehr aromatisch malzig, vollmundig, zum Ende auch etwas scharf, dafür aber untypischerweise kein bisschen bitte. Gelungenes aromatisches Bier! 12/12/10/12/11/12

22oz bottle pours an oily, opaque black with a thin, tan head. Nose of molasses, a little oxidized, raisins, coffee liqueur. Flavor is sweet, brown sugar, molasses, light coffee, thinning coffee, toasted bread. Medium bodied, dry finish. Starting to fade out a bit.

Bottle at LCRBM5. Black as hell, lasting tan head. Some vanilla bean, some choc. But not really up to my taste. Not great to be honest.

[9/5/09] Bottle sample during LCRBM at Kulminator in Antwerp. Black-colored with a brown head. Powerful chocolate, fruits and whiskey in the aroma. Sweet flavor with bitter chocolate, oak, whiskey, some dark fruits and a bit of alcohol. Viscous mouthfeel.

Dark beige rim over black beer. Alcohol, brandy-like onslaught on very discreetly roasted malts. Sweet-complex, old sherry with walnuts and chocolate; dark fruit as prunes/plums. Very well-bodied, viscous and warming. Excellent beer, great! unbelievable they went out of business.
