Un grand merci à Graham qui m'a fait découvrir cette bière et spéciale dédicace à un grand père qui sera j'en suis certain extra ! Nous sommes ici devant une collaboration entre les brasseries Turning Point et Siren pour un Imperial Tropical Stout. On y trouve du lactose, du cacao et des épices (il n'est pas indiqué lesquels) avec un vieillissement avec des copeaux d'amburana. Le visuel est sur un noir profond avec une très fine effervescence et quasi sans mousse. Au nez, le chocolat est franc avec du café, le boisé de l'amburana, de la cannelle et de la coriandre. En bouche, si la texture est fine, l'imperial stout est très gourmand. Le sucre est peu surdosé mais l'alcool, à 11 % est chaleureux et les épices parfaitement dosées. Ça claque en tout cas en bouche avec une grosse présence. C'est brut, sans beaucoup de variations mais c'est bon !

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 2nd September 2025. Hazy amber with shallow disappearing foam and spot lacing. Grassy hoppiness in aroma. Citrus tangerine peel in-mouth with a good malt.

It's Barry Gibb's birthday today - he's provided plenty of disco zing in his time! Hazy juice appearance, closest to mango in appearance but passion fruit and orange citrus is more of the taste with a low to mid sourness.
