Description
A long time ago, in a brewery far, far away....a keen home brewer had a dream to produce the greatest Imperial Stouts and Porters the galaxy had ever seen. That dream is Emperor's Brewery...and it is fully operational!

This will be a day long remembered...

Moved to co-locate with Bang The Elephant in Langley Mill in 2024.

Canned output is contract brewed at Dugges in Sweden.

330ml can. Pitch black with the thinnest of tan heads. Aroma of coconut, chocolate, bourbon. Taste is very rich, chocolate, coconut, bourbon, oak, honey, liquorice, boozy warmth. Full bodied, smooth. Not convinced the BA did anything to improve but fantastic stout either way.

330ml can. Pours black with a thin brown head that disappears immediately. Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate, coconut. Taste is rich, lots of coffee, roast malts, dark chocolate, coconut, vanilla, caramel, sugar, sweet but the coffee and roast malt give plenty of bitterness, oak and whiskey notes, boozy warmth. Full bodied and smooth. Just as good as the non-BA.
