When designing the first Imperial Milk Porter, we knew we wanted to create something very special, which we also envisioned as a fruity Night Shift batch. The condensed base beer was transferred to freshly emptied Pedro Ximénez Sherry and rum barrels for 6 months, allowing the woody notes of the barrel to enhance the base beer's cherry, poppyseed, and subtly milky chocolate flavor profile, creating this truly pastry-like, full-bodied batch.

A rather unappealing beer visually- no head and a very muddy dark brown. Bold cherry, caramel, sweet px sherry notes, light oak, some chocolate but that may be more of a whisper than a real note. I didn’t get rum out of this nor did I pick up much of the base porter- mostly the cherry and sherry. That being said, it’s a fun beer and a good beer to share with a few friends.

Kicsi, azonnal elillanó hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kávés, mákos, enyhén meggyes, rumos illat. Édes, csokis, kávés, mákos, meggyes, enyhén rumos, tölgyfahordós, leheletnyit fahéjas, sütis ízek. Testes, enyhén szénsavas, közepesen keserfű. Nagyon jó egyensúllyal rendelkező, kissé egy meggyes-mákos rétesre hajazó sör.
