A captivating imperial stout brewed with a generous helping of truffles.
Taste: The initial taste is on the drier side with a hint of cocoa. The mid-palate introduces a milky chocolate sweetness, while the finish reveals the characteristic nutty and umami flavors of truffle.
Appearance: Dark brown beer with a small but long-lasting brown head.
Nose: Full-bodied and chocolaty, with roasted coffee and cocoa notes. The specific aroma of truffle is initially subtle but ultimately ties all the other scents into a pleasant bouquet.
Malts: Pilsner, Munich light, Golden naked oats, Caramel 150, Fermented rye malt, Carafa special T-3
Hops: Vic secret

Near clear deep brown beer, decent bubbly tan head. Smooth palate, airy, a very mild dryness and late emerging good fine minerally carbonation. Surprisingly sweet this stout, sweet for something infused with truffles anyway. Soft dark malt cream and decent creamy dark chocolate. The truffles really only come through on the back end and really only in mild way. A modest savoury aspect and a whisper of something mushroomy. Closes out with some dark fruity dark malts. Nice Impy, think a bit more bravado with the truffles would make a more unique Impy.
