can, 2024 from kihoskh
I had to create this one as Pastry stout bc. the style must be the same as the batch parent beer or it can't be added.

I think it could be argued this is an imperial stout, not a pastry - only thing added as far as I know is coffee.

when opening the can a lot of stout came out by itself, making a mess of my desk.

very nice mainly roasted malty aroma with a bit of perfumey coconut going on. coffee. the bourbon is not very heavy, only being hinted at. smooth balanced aroma

flavor is coconut, cake glazing sweetness, coffee - lots of coffee, roasted malts into the end, and hard roasted lots of coffee roast into the far end.

I think I can feel the coffee - lots of coffee here.

pretty good, for a speedway stout it is a bit too much cake glazing up front, and too little roasted malts. also the bourbon sort of hides itself under the heavy coffee bitterness. it does feel super balanced and smooth and all - but in the end not the best speedway stout i've tried. mouthfeel is okay but tilting towards watery.

pitch dark smooth large light brown head.
maple syrup, roasted malts, coffee, brown sugar, honey in the aroma.
vanilla pancakes aroma. normally i find pastry stouts artificially sweet and artificially flavored but this aroma is natural and really good.
flavor is chocolate, roasted malts, bit watery palate, dark caramel, espresso coffee or hard roasted coffee, burnt pancakes - far from as good as aroma but still reasonable pastry stoutish. burnt caramel is too big in the mix.

Dry malty aroma, slightly sweet malts. Some nuts. Finer licorice and coconut hint of notes probably from the bourbon
Flavor is very complex. Caramelly malty nutty base with finer notes of coconut and wood.
Dry and very well balanced. The barrelling is discrete with most of the flavor being barley wine ish. This is a very good English style barley wine

Tap at fermentoren
Brown, light brown head
Mild but very nicely rounded roasted malty aroma.
Flavor is well roasted malty, dry , hard roasted malts, mineral water. Really good lowish alc porter. Reminds me a but about guinness but much better

mild slightly flowery aroma, euro-hoppy-bitter. maybe an english style IPA? it is bitter from hops and alc. but not the aromatic pine grapefruit kind they do in USA.
flavor is flowery, alc. bitterness, pilsener like neutral almost metallic bitterness, end is flowery and slightly yellow fruity sweet , a bit like a belgian blonde or tripel perhaps. fairly tasty but has this macro metallic bitterness going that could be improved on.

clear orange, huge smooth beige head.
mild but quite hoppy aroma, malts, hops are slighlty piney and grapefruity but mostly rather tasteless and a bit flowery. like a macro IPA.
flavor is quite hoppy bitter, flowery notes, alc. like bitterness, the bitterness almost more closely resembles the bitterness you would find in a pilsener than the one you'd find in an american ipa. An English IPA could be like this, but would probably be a bit more aromatic. I think this is a macro booze-bomb disguised as an Imperial IPA. It certanly is very traditionally european, not american.

mild flowery and faint ripe yellow fruity aroma, sort of like your average Danish-style attempt at an american ipa.
flavor has pine and grapefruit, bit flowery notes, but true to style and some sweet notes from the malts that actually suits it very well, flavor much better than aroma. Decent west-coast IPA. Aroma has work to do, flavor is very good.
