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.

Tap at Winter Affair. Black body, no head. Fermented berries, caramel and light cocoa in the slightly sharp aroma without much alcohol. Lean, dry taste. Honey, fermented berries, blueberries, light cocoa, bitterish. Fun!

Tap at Winter Affair 2025. Black body, off-white head. Peat dominates the aroma, but in a good way I'd say, some alcohol and light chcolate. Peaty, soft taste, huuuge peat and smoke, very well balanced out by the malty profile, ending bitterish. Not my fav, as I'm not the biggest fan of peat, but it's so well made!

Tap at Winter Affair 2025. Black body, off-white head. Dried cherry, alcohol, chocolate, caramel in the slightly dusty aroma, lovely. Nice, soft taste, well integrated cherry, caramelly, barrel touches that grow, very well hidden alcohol, bitterish. The barrel overruled everything else, but that's a good thing here, subdued, but so well integrated, easy drinking almost. Respect!

330ml can. Pitch black with a thin brown head that disappears immediately. Aroma of coconut, coffee, chocolate. Taste is very rich, loads of coconut, coffee, chocolate, caramel, sugar, sweet but has a roasty bitterness, boozy warmth. Full bodied and smooth. Another superb stout from Emperor Damian.

Can from Just In Beer, Groningen. Raspberry with dark roasted malt. Dark chocolate, bit disappointed by the lack of peanut. More raspberry throughout with some alcohol. Medium sweet, fairly bitter. Medium to full body. Candied and bitter roast.
