Freedom from alcohol limitations in Ohio has finally been granted in 2016, allowing us to brew T.O.R.I.S.!! This super-tasty Triple Oatmeal Russian Imperial Stout is rich, dark, and flavorful - the way we like it - this beer is intense! It has been long-awaited by our brewery as well as our fans. There comes a day when you break out of your shell, and stretch your wings. Now is the time - time for T.O.R.I.S.!!

250ml can. Pitch black with a thin brown head. Aroma of dark malts, liquorice, chocolate. Taste of rich dark malts, chocolate, liquorice, roasty bitterness, very very boozy, finish is hot, there's slightly odd aftertaste not quite astringent but any stronger and I could see it going that way. Full bodied. Yeah it's good but it's a bit much; thought BORIS was far superior. Not really looking forward to QORIS now!

Holy motherf……what a cracker. Sad it was only one left when I bought it. But now I know better Complete sinful black stuff a small beige head. Fine intensity in the aroma. Thick engine oil. Oh yeah. Solid mouth feeling. Gently carbonated. Maybe not easy to drink. But that is not the point either. Dark malt, chocolate, roast, oak, espresso and fruity. Not a well masked alcohol level. But it worked fine. [Small can from Systembolaget in Grebbestad, Sweden]

Can, 8.45 floz. A clear looking black beer with a small tan head. Oily. Boozy aroma, roasted malts, licorice, brown sugar and some spiced hints. It's smooth and full bodied, lightly carbonated and quite warming, sweet. Brown sugar, coffee, licorice and some molasses hints in the flavor. Spiced hints. Lasting finish. Challenging to drink but sure nice. 240726

8.45 ounce can from Tavour. Jet black pour is topped by a frothy brown head. Intense roasted malt aroma hints at dark chocolate, charred wood and licorice. Flavor follows nose. Huge alcohol presence. Dark dried currants, bittersweet chocolate, espresso beans. A challenge to the beer senses.

Lovely little can, at home, 13th April 2024. Pours a thick black stout. Aroma is liquorice, caramel, chocolate and malts. Taste is massive, liquorice, chocolate, caramel, hoppy, bitter, perfect in the mouth. Fantastic Classic Impy, and love the 8.45 fluid ounce cans

Aus der Flasche im 2004-01 getrunken. Diese Stout ist wunderbar ausgewogen und der Einsatz des Hafers hat dem Stout ein cremiges Mundgefühl gegeben. Einfach Wunderbar!
