After extensive rum tasting, we found that Jamaican rum works best, with its fruity ester notes that complement the cassonade sugar and Belgian yeast. Rum, being distilled dark sugar, is perfectly complemented by the addition of some sugar at the end of the brew, giving it a rich, sweet depth. Enriched with Mroost 900 chocolate malt, this stout is thick, dark, and indulgent.
Cheers

Aus der Dose (bbe 02.01.2027) im 2025-09 getrunken. Dieses Stout strotzt vor dunkler Schokolade und Haselnüssen. Die deutliche Süße sorgt für eine sehr gute Balance der Röstaromen. Schöner flüssiger Nachtisch.

pours thick black settles in a fizzy nearly smooth brown to light brown head that disappears fast.
aroma is a bit artificial with vanilla, fruity notes, rum, chocolate and perhaps a bit of roasted malts.
flavor is very sweet, sugary sweet, vanilla, some cofffee and roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and roasted malty bitter ending, some dark chocolate, faint charred wood. lots of artificial tasting vanilla and perhaps som rum like notes. I don't think it's a hit to add sugar to an imp stout, they're sweet already to begin with.
