Hornbeer Russian Imperial Stout
Danish: Russian Imperial Stout har sit navn tilbage fra zartiden i Rusland. Denne kulsorte øl var zarhoffets foretrukne. Vi har tilladt os at give denne klassiske øl en lille drejning i retning af vores smag. Der er brugt tørverøget malt og tilsat et stænk friskbrygget colombiansk kaffe. Hvornår kan man så drikke denne øl ? Traditionelt er stout jo betragtet som dessertøl. Det er vores erfaring, at det er synd for øllet hvis desserten er af den søde slags. Prøv den til bløde oste eller chokolade med min. 70 pct kakao. Men Hornbeer Russian Imperial Stout går altså også fint alene!

500 ml bottle. BB 01/09/13. Mange tak Timo A!
Black color, small tan head.
Roasted malt, alcohol, sweetness and burned white fish in the aroma.
The flavor is roasted malt, sweetness, spices, alcohol and sugar. Nothing really wrong with this but a bit boring for an Imperial Stout.
Bottle. Pours a jet black body with a massive cloudy caramel-hued beige head. Nose is dark berries, coffee, grains, caramel and hints of licorice and leather. Taste is bitter herbs, dark chocolate, coffee, caramel and hints of grains and dark berries. Medium to full body, medium to high carbonation. Not bad, but the high carb levels and bitter herbal hoppy notes makes it a bit harsh around the edges. Decent enough, but certainly no winner in this weight class.,
Old rating rerated 20.03.2016, 0,5l bottle @ home:
Huge slightly fizzy-creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly sour-ish mineraly, weeds, bark, roasted grain, hops, sour coffee, licorice, burnt toast, co2 stinging in the nose. Taste is sour-ish roasted, weeds, sour coffee, burnt grain, grass, minerals, burnt toast, bark, licorice, pine needles, paper. Medium to longlasting bitterness, sour-ish harsh mouthfeel. Not my cup of tea.
Bottle (500 ml) at home. Best before 06-06-2017. Pitch black with a frothy large persistent brown head leaving good lacing. Aroma is of fudge, vanilla, roasted malts, coffee, raisins and mild spiciness. Taste is sligthly sweet, mildly acidic and quite fruity with raisins, roasted malts, chocolate and hints of vanilla. Medium body, but a bit thin for the style. Medium carbonation. Fruity finish. Short aftertaste. Decent flavorful RIS but thin on the mouthfeel and a bit too acidic for my liking.
Draft at Uiltje. Black with a medium brown head. Aroma of roast, coffee, licorice, toffee and caramel. Flavour is light heavy sweet and moderate bitter. Medium to full bodied with soft carbonation.

0,5 l flaske fra Randaberg-polet. Svart kropp med et tykt, tett, mørkebrunt skum som henger på veggene. Kraftig aroma av molasse, kreosot og torvrøykt malt. Deilige smaker av røstet rosin og røykt malt. God fylde, tørr med en masse ettersmak. Nam!
Flaske 500ml fra Vinmonopolet Tromsø Sentrum. Svart. Høyt luftig lysebrunt skum som daler sakte og etterlater pene filigranser. God aroma av sjokolade. Smaken starter forsiktig men utvikler seg voldsomt. Først søt sjokolade men den blir raskt avløst av røstet malt & kaffe. Blir lett bitter og tørr etter hvert. Etterlater en veldig tørr ettersmak hvor en aner litt kaffe.
Svart med medium høyt brunt skum. Aroma av sjokolade, røstet malt og kaffe. Smaken er kaffe, lær og sjokolade. Mildt søt. Behagelig bitterhet i ettersmaken. Medium/tykk konsistens.
Roasted aroma with coffee. The aroma was not very strong. Taste is also roasted and coffee, but there is some dark fruits and. Taste is almost sour but with a bitterness in the aftertaste.
Flaska från SB ca 3 år gammal. En kraftig IS som balanserar väl mellan kärvhet och sötma. Massor av hårdrostat kaffe med viss beska, kakao, mörk choklad. Kraftfull och smakrik. Gott
En god sød og henførende aroma af ristet malt. Rugbrød, kaffe, læder, pibetobak. God tyk konsistens. Skummet forsvinder rimelig hurtigt og der er en lille snert af alkohol i eftersmagen. Men det er kun små detaljer i en ellers helt fin øl.

Svart farge med beige skum. Lukter mørke stenfrukter, kaffe,sjokolade. Fyldig og mye smaker. Fruktig og kaffe preger denne mest. Søt. Imperial stout er aldri feil. Noe kort avslutning.

Fruity, malt sweet aroma with cocoa & coffee. Black with large brown long lasting head. Sour & dry taste. Medium body, thin texture & soft carbonation.
50cl bottle. Pours black with tan lasting head. Aroma is chocolatey and not much else, hints of hops. Tastes quite tame with some chocolate and coffee. Mild in every aspect, probably nice in right circumstance (with food?).
Bottle from systembolaget. Pours Black with a medium brown head. Aroma is sweet, with chocolates and malts. Taste is deep with roasted malts and a bit smokey, not very sweet though some coffee and chocolate. Palate is a bit too thin with an oily texture. Overall a nice beer, though I wished for a bigger and fuller taste.
Svart med ett stort, tätt och kraftigt brunt skum. Doft: Kakao, kakao, Dajm, nöt kräm, lite alkohol. Smak: Billigt och dåligt kaffe, mörk choklad, lakrits, alkohol, bränt bröd.
500mL bottle, pours jet black with a towering brown head that overflows the glass -- something seems wrong here. After waiting 10 minutes to let this thing temper down, the aroma brings out notes of roasted malt, burnt rubber, and light sourness. Flavour is along the same lines, with burnt roasted malt, rubber, and maybe a hint of sourness. No doubt there’s an infection to this. The carbonation is way too high as well. It’s not a disaster, and once you let it settle a bit, it’s okay, but this is clearly off.
Bottle 50cl. Pitch black with a foamy brown head. Intense flavours of peat, coffee and some chocolate. Beautifull taste. Extreme rich, full bodied and nice in balance with a good portion hops. Well done! Long lasting finish.
