Bring Out The Imp II from Alechemy Brewing

7.4/10 — Appearance 10 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
0,33 flaske fra VO Bergen Storsenter (såvidt jeg kan huske...), nydt hjemme sammen med DR Symfoniorkester og Nielsens 2. symfoni: nesten helt svart med fint cremeskum som varer så lenge det trengs. Nytraktet kaffe, litt lakris, mørke karamellsjokolader pluss et hint av ristede hasselnøtter, bjørnebær og røykmalt. Fin granbaraktig bitterhet i avslutningen, som ikke mangler mersmak. Særdeles lett å helle innpå.

Ruskie Business from Alechemy Brewing

6.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 6
August 2014: Shared 330 ml bottle at local tasting. Black colour, moderate tan head. The aroma is not impressive for an imperial stout, some unwanted "green apples" and "chemical" notes mask the expected roasty notes. Some liquorice in the background. The flavour is somewhat better than the aroma, lightly sweet with distinct roasty notes, some coffee and liquorice, but still not the best IS I’ve had.

Cask-conditioned at the John Moore (JDW), Glasgow May 2023. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. A few citrus hops, some tangerine character, sweet rich tea maltiness leading to a moderately bitter finish. Fine.
