4/4 of the experimental X series presented by Mikkeller at Københavnske Øldage 2006. X Imperial Stout is strongest beer ever brewed by a danish brewery. It’s a killer..... brewed with 11 different malts, 3 sugars, 6 hop types and 3 different yeast strains.

NUMBER 400, WHAT?? Huge tip of the cap to Greg for landing this bottle!!! Joan Jett black pour with a tan head. The nose is crazy with dark fruit, chocolate, and funk aromas. The taste to me was more like a barley wine than an imperial stout. Dark fruit, lacto, cherry, green apple, cinnamon and other spices. What a mad blend. AWESOME...

[Another century celebrated with a Mikkeller beer - this time 9100] Draft. A pitch black beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with notes of soy sauce, chocolate, licorice, and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, alcohol, roasted malt, soy sauce, and licorice - the strongest though is the chocolate.

Black with a medium lasting, light brown head. Chocolate, port and toffee aroma. Sweet flavour with caramel and port, intense long aftertaste. A little bit too sweet.

Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Jet black beer with some tan head. Coffee, chocolate notes, vanilla notes, hoppy bitterness, alcohol and syrupy sweetness in the aroma. The flavor has alcohol, coffee, chocolate, vanilla, hoppy bitterness and sweetness. Quite acidic and astringent in the mouth, silky and full. Long finish with coffee, vanilla and hops. It’s a bit on the sweet side, I like ’em drier, but it is a lovely beer anyway. It’s a pity it’s only an experiment. (070512)

Draught at KØ07. Fruity and roasted aroma. Black colour. Quite sweet and peppery flavour. Also vinous. Very late and very roasted aftertaste. Strangely, I find the mouthfeel a little thin considering the ABV. Sorry to be a drag, but this is just not my kind of beer, it is very rough.

(On tap) Completely pitch black and opaque with a tiny, light brown head. Intense aroma of roasted malt and sweetish, dried fruit - dates in particular. Extremely full-bodied - you almost have to cut your way through this - but flat, completely flat. Extremely vinous - this is like a good port. The malt base is extreme with notes of cough syrup and a shipload of dried fruit. The sweetness is excessive. The alcohol burn is extreme in the finish. Very delicate but extremely unbalanced. A sipper - over the whole of an evening! 120507
