Bottle, 7.8%. The aroma has some rosemary, and it smells quite nice. Also seems malty with some CO2 in the nose. Hazy dark golden colour. Ok stable whitish head. The flavour is malty, sweet, slightly yeasty with a good spicy note from the rosemary. The bitterness is a little harsh, whether it be from the hops or the alcohol.

0.33 l bottle from 'Bierloods22', 9.8% abv, best before February 2024. Clear, very dark ruby to black with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity, slightly roasty aroma of caramel, toasted nuts, coffee and some raisins. Quite sweet, malty, gently roasty taste of caramel, dark chocolate, coffee, some licorice, raisins and a touch of oak, followed by a medium long, quite roasty-bitter, slightly earthy, a little vinous finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Rather fruity for an Imperial Stout, almost vinous, still with quite some roast and a velvety mouthfeel. Very pleasant, but also with enough intensity.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Mitra Gorinchem. Dutch brewery #399. Clear golden with an over-enthusiastic white head. Nice ginger and lemongrass aroma. Bitter-sweet taste with a bitter herbal finish. Tasty pale ale with a twist, might indeed go well with a hot curry.
