Black pours in glass. Head is almost
non-existent. Aroma is a bit whisky-like, but mainly some roasted
malts, stoutlike.
Taste is quite good. Burned, but in a
sensitive way. Aftertaste is not too strong, but this must be the
best of those ”whisky-aged” beers I have had lately. This is
quite drinkable, actually. This is a very good imperial stout. This
has balance, which lacks in some BrewDog beers. This is kinda
moderate, but at the same time elegant.
Back to aroma. It's very imperial
stoutlike actually. I'm starting to wait, if this has something in
its back pocket, but it has not. This is just good stuff. But, and
this question is often important: Is this great? I actually can't
say. I like this, but there are better beers. Even the earlier AB:12
was better, because it had something unique in it. Must change
rating.
Don't get me wrong. This is very good
beer. Maybe even great. But in a genre of imperial stouts, this is
only good, OK.
*** OK
