Can at home shared with Laura. Opaque black color, quickly diminishing head. Aroma is heavy coffee and distant chocolate. Quite lovely. Flavor is malts, again heavy coffee but also sweet notes, vanilla perhaps, with firm chocolate as well in the finish. In the end I must admit, the sweetness is quite high. Nice firm coffee and chocolate without a doubt but I would've liked it to be a little less sweet.

440ml can. Jet black colour with minimally late awakening, small to average, frothy to creamy, fading, tan head. Chocolately, minimally roasty, dark malty, slightly nutty and minimally spicy aroma, hints of vanilla, toasted coconut, chocolate sauce and coffee, some caramel, whiffs of tonka and brown sugar, overtones of wafers, cookie dough. Taste is sweet-ish, chocolately, slightly roasty, dark malty, slightly nutty and spicy, doughy and minimally alcoholic, notes of cookie dough, hints of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, toasted coconut, a touch of brown sugar, caramel, tonka; slightly warming, alcoholic finish.
Viscous texture, smooth and soft, cloying palate, fine, creamy, soft to flat carbonation.
Well composed and executed Imperial Pastry Stout, nothing to complain about; but more coffee, less vanilla in the mix should have met my penchant better.

Aus der Dose (canned 22.01.2026/bbe 31.12.2029) im 2026-03 getrunken. Dieses Stout mit hellbrauner Schaumkrone kommt mit intensiven Aromen von dunkler Schokolade und frisch gebackenen Waffeln daher. Der Körper ist wirklich mächtig und dadurch kleben die Aromen förmlich ewig am Gaumen. Die leichte Süße gleicht die Röstbitterkeit wunderbar aus und der Alkohol ist perfekt eingebunden. Ein tolles Stout zum Genießen!
