(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm, 8 Feb 2008) Mahogany colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, grainy nose with notes of toffee, nuts and dark fruit. Malty, nutty taste with dark fruit, grain, caramel, chocolate and a short whiff of earthy bitterness in the finish. Malt dominates this tasty beer, but the finish is a bit short. Nice one.

Bottle courtesy of mgermani: Poured an amber color ale with a small foamy head with minimal retention and no lacing. Aroma of medium caramel notes is definitely weaker then expected. Taste is a mix between some sweet malt with some toffee notes but in the end this just seems to be lacking character. Body is a bit thin with some medium carbonation. It appears this one fell short in a style that seems to be hard to master.

Thanks Brent for sharing! Starts bready with a tobacco hoppiness. Some citrus fruit and dusty yeastiness. My companions are proclaiming citric hops and urine! I almost get that, but not quite exactly that. Its a weird and unusual aroma for sure. Light copper color. Big caramel flavors, with some unusual floral notes and a background of grapefruit hops. I’ve never had anything like this and I can’t even say if I liked it or not!

Bottle at Chris_o’s Magic Night. Reddish brown, lasting beige. Some coffee/choc. Odd off aroma. Bit thin in mouth. Bit grainy in mouth. Not much of an Impy Stout. Fine.
