Lervig / Way 3 Bean Stout

Lervig / Way 3 Bean Stout

A few Brazilian brewers came all the way to Norway to brew a big giant of a stout. Keeping in line with giants we tossed a few magic beans in the brew for good measure.
Ingredients: water, malt, hops, yeast, vanilla, tonka and cacao beans.

First in bottle 13.0 %, later in can and 12.0 %

3.9 Canned, huge thanks Hrabren! Most of my half of the can ended up in my lap because reasons, but hey, some's still here! Great! Now my room's gonna smell of 3 Bean Stout! Thankfully, that's great. Very dark brown body, some head. Enormous, perfumey aroma, tonka owning everything beautifully, over some coconut and cocoa. The taste continues along the lines of the tonka glory, covering again some cocoe, but hits with an early herbal bitterness that doesn't mix well with the perfumey excellence that is the rest of the beer. Light warming, well integrated alcohol for the 12%. Good stuff!
4.1 0.33 l can shared with Marko. Dark brown to black, small lasting creamy beige head. Heavily roasty, licorice, intense ground coffee, heaps of vanilla, also candy or sugar. Cocoa and Tonka bean clearly present in the aroma while the roastiness softens out. Smooth, nutty, vanilla, cocoa, roasted hazelnut, dark cherry, syrupy, molasses or just brown sugar. Cherry brandy after awhile but with alcohol hidden. Nicely develops from aromatic spicy roasty to sweet fruity, finishes dry and lingering roasty. Potent and strong, of course but with silky and smooth texture.
3.8 bij mijn thuis samen met yves een zwart kleurig lichaam met een bruinige kop en met een gerookte mout chocolat koffie aroma een gerookte mout chocolat vanille koffie licht zoet hop droge bitter smaak met een alcoholische bitter einde

4.3 [Tasting - Aarhus] Aroma: Lots of tonka, liquorice, vanilla, sweet liquorice, cinnamon, cocoa nibs and milk chocolate Appearance: Pitch black with a small fast disappearing brown head Taste: Heavily sweet and moderately bitter, cocoa nibs, tonka beans, cinnamon, liquorice, milk chocolate and fudge Mouthfeel: Soft thick velvety mouthfeel with soft carbonation Overall: I like the rum barrel aged version more, but damn this is delicious too!

Attack: thick liquid malt Mids: licorice tonka bean, lvl8-sweetness, thick barley molasses bittersweet malt Finish: ginger, cacao molasses, vanilla bean exhale Overall: very potent but flavourful and rich malt.

4.1 Can, 0.33l. Deep brown, almost black pour, two finger creamy brown head. Long lasting, good retention, thick lacing on the glass. Sweet on the nose, hints of cinnamon, cocoa and chocolate. Very nice. Full body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, oily and creamy, soft, very nice on the palate. Sweet taste with mild roasty bitterness and a touch of spice. Malty aroma, toasted caramel, toffee, huge tonka bean flavor. Vanilla, cocoa, chocolate. Bready, mild spicy, touch of cinnamon. Coconut in the aftertaste. Sticky, molasses. Long lasting finish, sweet, lingering roasty bitterness and warming alcohol. Tasty.

4.3 Iz MAS Plenuma Rijeka. Aroma je mix vanilije , kokosa i cimeta .. ..krasno :) Okus je ono baš isto takav , uz možda još malko suhih groždica koje daju blagu kiselkastost , i da naglasim , nije presladak , po meni taman ...opet veliki "like" ... :) Alkohol od 12% je sasvim fino izbalansiran ... Tijelo nije gusto , nego baš ono pitko ... Izvanredan Imperial Stout. Od ovih šta sam probao je sam vrh !
4.2 On tap tasting at Taisoon Bar BKK Wow that’s nice imperial flavours stout coming with abv 12% cocoa, vanilla, coconut, brown sugar taste it’s so lovely stout. So notable imperial flavours stout
3.8 Can. Pitch black, tiny beige head, not lasting. Stronger cocoa and chocolate nose, vanilla and spices some coffee notes. Sweet chocolate and vanilla, medium bitterness. Some roastiness in the finish. A bit of alcohol. Not bad, just a bit too sharp.
4.0 W aromacie dominuje tonka, pozostałe dodatki też wyczuwalne. W smaku z kolei na pierwszy plan wychodzi kakao i czekolada. Solidne piwo.
4.3 Can. Pours cloudy dark brown with airy tan head. Clear aroma of tonka and vanilla, with touches of malt and yeast and hints of caramel. Roasty onset, giving way to sweet notes of vanilla, tonka and malt, with touches of yeast and chocolate. Roasty and vanillalike aftertaste. A very good beer but a heavy one, too. Great for sharing.
4.2 Nalewa się nieprzejrzyście czarne, całkiem obfita beżowa do ciemnobezowej piana. W zapachu mocno tonka, marcepan, cynamon, kakaowiec i wanilia raczej w tle, po chwili trochę sie równoważy, wychodzi do tego trochę kawki. W ustach gładko, całkiem cieliste, początek słodki finisz palono goryczkowy. W smaku trochę mniej tonki, chociaż dalej jest to element przewodni, ale jest też fajnie czekoladowe, wanilia podbija słodycz. Finisz jest soldnie kawowo-palony, łagodzi slodycz, po paru łykach może delikatnie w sposób lierowy rozgrzewa. Klasa piwo, tonka robi robotę, ale przy tym nie jest przesadnie słodkie.
4.4 Thuis uit een blikje. Prachtig zwarte kleur, donkerbruin schuim, wat je bij een imperial stout ook wel verwacht. Veel vanille in het aroma, smaak heerlijk, je bent eigenlijk een dessert aan het eten. Smaak ook weer vanille, chocolade. Ook wel wat alcohol in de nasmaak, maar ja.
4.2 Aromat: intensywny, korzenny - marcepan, cynamon, nieco skorzany, ale przede wszystkim wyroziaja sie zapachy migdalów, kakao i tonki. Piwo czarne i nieprzejrzyste, piana niska szybko znika bez sladu. W smaku rowniez wyraziste, intensywne, slodkie, dominuje deserowa czekolada, kakao,karmel, migdaly, marcepan, tonka. Goryczka dosc niska - palona. Alkohol nieco rozgrzewa w przelyk i lekko podszczypuje w jezyk dodając pikanterii tej zlozonej smakowo kompozycji. Nasycenie niskie cialo dość wysokie.
4.4 De lo mejor que me he bebido últimamente, sedosa en nariz y en boca muy aromática y en paladar densa y agradable. Dulzona pero al mismo tiempo ahumada. Se nota mucho el coco y es muy agradable esta muy bien armonizada.
4.2 Imperial stout ottima, si sentono tutti gli aromi che ci si aspetta di sentire dalla descrizione. 12 gradi che non si sentono neanche troppo.
4.1 Barwa czarna, piana niska, jasnobrązowa, średnio trwała. W aromacie marcepan, tonka, czekolada, przyprawy korzenne, kawa. W smaku intensywne, słodkie. Głównie tonka, kakao i czekolada, w tle przyprawy i paloność. Gładkie, dużo ciała, wysycenie niskie. Bardzo dobre.
4.1 Data do 22.09.30. Wygląd: barwa czarna piwo jest zupełnie nieprzejrzyste, piany brak. Aromat: marcepan, migdały, czekolada, tonka, słodko, czekoladki merci marcepanowe. W smaku podobnie, tym razem dominuje czekolada, dalej marcepan i migdały, Balans zdecydowanie po słodkiej stronie. Goryczka niska, krótka, palona. Ciało pełne, alkohol bardzo delikatnie drapie po podniebieniu. Niskie wysycenie. Spoko piwo.
3.3 Can at The Golden Garden Coffee, chocolate, massive vanilla, very sweet, perhaps sickly so. Very slow sipper. Not sure about this one. Purchased at The Golden Garden

3.8 Copenhagen 4/9 2020. 33 cl can from Meny, Østerfælled Torv, Kbh. Ø. Blue can with small photos of all kinds of beans and a drawing of a male figure with intestinal organs where I can see beans rumbling about in the stomach. Pours opaque dark brown with a small light beige head. settles as thin layer of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer. No lacing. Aroma is intense with a strong sweet and sugary odor of brown sugar, vanilla and cocoa. Caramel and toffee. A bit of roasted black coffee. A bit pastry-like. Light carbonation. Medium thick, slightly sticky, oily, soft texture. Flavor is intense with a strong sweetness followed by a lighter bitterness. Aftertaste is sugary sweet. Lingering. Sweet and boozy finish. Well made. More cake than coffee. Manages to subdue the considerable ABV under a curtain of pastries.
4.2 Can, 0.33l. Aroma of vanilla, chocolate, herbs, cinnamon, roasted malt and caramel. Pours pitch black color with thin creamy brown head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet caramel and chocolate, following is roasted, nutty, herbal and dried fruity, mouthfeel is smooth, mild spicy and warm, while finish is medium bitter. Full body, sticky texture and average carbonation in palate. Sweet beans...
3.9 33 cl can, served in a snifter. Poured black with one finger mocha tan head. Minimum carbonation. Aroma: dark roasted coffee beans, vanilla, milk chocolate, cinnamon, cereals, oats, caramel, dark fruit. Taste: milk chocolate, dark roasted espresso beans, vanilla, caramel, toffee, salty licorice, cinnamon, muscovado sugar, molasses, lactose, plums, sultana, oatmeal raisins cookies, dates, soy sauce, umami, sweet roasted malts, brownies sizzled with toffee sauce, chocolate milkshake, roasted pecan nuts, schwarzwalder kirsch torte, nougat. Oily and sticky mouthfeel. Long roasted bittersweet finish. Supersweet and a bit artificial but nothing that prevents this from being a good impy nevertheless.
4.1 Kawowo czekoladowy mocny smak troche ciezkie ale gicior
3.8 Sabores como q chocolate mezclados con un sabor que no se definir y estarían entre algo parecido a la canela y nueces de macadamia.... no se si me encanta o me llega a saturar hay que volver a beberla
4.6 25.05.2020, kran w Prologu Marcepan, piernik, ciepłe ciasto typu murzynek, kakao, kawa, wiśnia w likierze. Intensywne. Gęste. Słodkie, pod koniec męcząco. Bez cienia alkoholu. Poza nadmierną słodyczą: doskonałe.
