Looks like
oil, when poured - very thick black shit. Head is dark. Sweetness and burned
maltiness comes to nose when sniffed. Taste is like having a very sweet cup of
espresso. And that is my problem with these Imperial Stouts. And by these, I
mean these burned malty, coffeelike, espresso tasting, bitter dark chocolate tasting
Imperial Stouts, that either have or don’t have sweetness. This has, maybe even
too much to my taste. I don’t know…I always expect maybe too much and get
disappointed for not having another Stone Russian Imperial Stout or Plevna
Siperia 2010 Hanniku or this year’s best beer for me this far which was Amager
Hr. Frederiksen. Those three mentioned are the TOP3-Imperial Stouts I’ve ever
tasted and are easily among the best 10 beers of all time for me. I wasn’t a
big fan of this “espresso style” in Nogne O´s Imperial Stout and am not a big
fan of this Founders version of sweetened espresso. Still, this is a huge beer
and definitely for all beer enthusiasts. And that means very much OK.
