3.2 330ml bottle. Jet black colour with late awakening, very small, creamy, fading, brown head. Roasty, chocolately, dark malty, minimally smoky and oaty aroma, hints of caramel, milk chocolate, a touch of leather and vanilla. Taste is roasty dark malty, chocolately, minimally sweet, spicy, notes of dark chocolate, hints of vanilla, houndreds and thousands, a touch of burnt caramel. If reincarnation is a fact, i might be born again as a vanilla fan able to appreciate this kind of (Impy) Stouts - but never in this life.

3.5 Piwo czarne, piana szybko redukuje sie do koronki. W aromacie kawa i wanikia w tle. W smaku podobnie. Pelne. Niskie wysycenie.

4.1 Pivo u limenci. Poklon od Zvoneta. Tnx ! Aroma kava i vanilija , pa tako se pivo i zove , plus dodatak alkoholno likeraste note.. Tijelo je gusto, blago uljasto i lagano resko.. Okus je kao i aroma sa dodatkom umjereno voćne kiselosti , i naravno slatko , ali ne previše.. ..a to da grije uši , ne treba spominjati :) ..ma jednostavno nadjev za bombonjere.. Legendarno Mikkellerovo pivo koje treba obavezno probati ako imaš priliku.. Trenutno ga ima u MAS Plenumu..

4.0 Bottle at the SteveOJ birthday bottle share big vanilla and some coffee and chocolate more of a toasty and bitter chocolate flavor. Decent bitterness at the end

3.8 Gęsta, brązowa piana. W aromacie dobra kawa, nieco wanilli i opiekanego chleba. W smaku trochę popiołowe, czekolada mleczna i mocna kawa. Wanilia na drugim planie, przede wszystkim wniosła sporo słodyczy, która kontruje klasyczną, RIS-ową stronę piwa.

3.9 Can, thick deep brown bubbly head, opaque black color, lots of dark chocolate, mellow vanila complementing, traces of coffee and halva, mellow lingering sweetness, light coffee bitterness. Very nicely balanced, highly enjoyable.

4.1 Can at home. Has a very dark brown to black colour with a small light brown head. Aroma of coffee, sweet licorice, chocolate truffles, oak, vanilla and cocoa. Flavour of coffee, dark chocolate, oak, vanilla and licorice. Nice coffee bitterness in the end. Has a silky mouth feel, full body and a medium bitterness. A heavy beer with lots of coffee and vanilla. Rich and nice.

4.0 Puszka, edycja 2018, warzone w Lervigu. Idealnie czarne, przy nalewaniu widać, że oleiste, piana szybko redukuje się do zera. Piękna ta wanilia w aromacie! Podszyta mocno paloną kawą i nutami czekolady gorzkiej. Dość szokująca jest wysoka paloność i fakt, że ani przez chwilę nie ma wątpliwości, że to stout. Nie jest to zdecydowanie wyrób cukierniczy, kojarzący się z nowymi pozycjami. Szokująco niska słodycz, w smaku sporo kawy - znacznie mniej wanilii. Na finiszu wysoka paloność oraz nuty stoutu, ciut owsianki. Wysoka goryczka, czekolada 90%. Trochę się nie tego spodziewałem, ale i tak wypadło świetnie.

4.1 Аромат ванильный, но при этом имеются нотки кофе, немного сливочный как будто немного лактозы добавили. Цвет чернущий, просто уголь. Пенки нету даже тонкой. Вкус хорош. Немного ванильной сладости, затем легкая маслянистость и сливочность, все сбалансированно. Послевкусие уже с горчинкой хмелевой, а также сухость от какао бобов и кофе. Овсяник особо не почувствовал, может лишь намеки в конце. Алкоголь ощущается и не слабо. В целом мне понравился, весьма сложное пиво от mikkeller.

3.7 8-4-7-4-14 On tap @ What’s Brewing, Stavanger. Pours black, with a tiny, creamy head. Aroma is sweet malts with cocoa, muscovado and vanilla, as well as sweet liquorice and dark fruity notes. Creamy body, with medium carbonation. Flavour is sweet malty notes of cocoa, muscovado, vanilla and sweet licorice, as well as dark fruits, coffee and minerals.

3.9 12% version, might be they do a new version since 2018? 0.33 l can bought at Angry Moose, Čakovec to share with little Dina. Pours black or very dark brown, small to medium brown head, diminishing. Aroma of roasted malts, burnt, sweet coffee, light vanilla. Chocolate cake, quite syrupy. Light soy sauce, light licorice, some dark fruit, some wood, definitely some alcohol, some rubber, some kind of dark liqueur. Flavour goes from liquid chocolate, chocolate milkshake, dark cherry to carob. Sweet, smooth and sticky. Soft carbonation. Alcohol hidden in the mouthfeel. Some mineral quality on the palate, salted caramel. Finish kinda light, but pleasant.

4.4 Can which goes with Ireland-Russia RWC. It pours very black, dark brown head, quite persistent with lovely lacing. Fantastic to the nose, with toast, oats, vanilla, coffee and chocolate. Tastes moderately sweet but with a good balance of toasted bitterness. Lingering coffee, vanilla and chocolate, with alcohol nearly unnoticeable. Viscous, full bodied, smooth, long long long delicious finish. Excellent!

4.4 330 ml can, Pours black with a moderate dark tan head. Aromas of dark chocolate syrup, vanilla, creamy rich coffee, dark fruit liqueur, treacle, and rich roasted malts. Flavors of vanilla, graham wafers, rich creamy coffee, powdery dark chocolate, sweet molasses and oily roasted malts. Decadent.

4.2 [Tasting - Beder] Aroma: Moderate sweet, chocolate brownies, vanilla, roasted malt and a light alcoholic scent Appearance: Pitch black with a small brown short-lasting head Taste: Moderate sweet with a long duration, chocolate, vanilla, malt ending in a moderate coffee bitter taste Mouthfeel: Really impressive creamy mouthfeel with soft-no carbonation Overall: Amazing imperial stout from Mikkeller ;)

4.5 Perfect nails vanilla milkshake taste. Sweet & smooth.Near perfect dessert

3.6 Can pour, deep brown black color. Vanilla coffee aroma. Sweet chocolate and vanilla on the front end. Dry vanilla and light coffee. Medium bodied.

5.0 Impossible to fault. Outrageous oil and mousse pour. Vanilla and marshmallow aroma. Palate assaulted by vanilla, coffee, hazelnuts and walnuts, dates, brownies and some alcohol burn. Long finish keeps the alcohol glow and some charcoal joining the party at the death. Not gluggy either. Top marks!

3.9 Dark brown, lots of vanilla, soft dark chocolate, and rich dark malts. Good complexity of dark malt, and that’s part of the appeal. I'm not big on vanilla, so for me this should suck, but it very much does not.

3.9 Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 12% ABV, bb 13/02/2029 Black colour. Rather oily, some aroma of nuts, walnut, vanilla extract. Moderately sweet, some robacco, a bit earthy, roasted malts, some coffee. Good, but overpriced.

4.0 330ml can at Alex's. Appearance: very dark brown with the same head. Aroma: lots of vanilla, some lacto, maybe maple and coffee. Taste: along the same lines with noticeable bitterness. Overall: pretty good.

4.1 Pours thick black with thin, dark tan head. Aroma is vanilla, molasses and roast. Taste is chocolate and brown sugar, moving to vanilla, coffee and roast. Finish is vanilla and roast. A very tasty dessert stout.

4.0 Black with a minimal light brown head. Aroma of vanilla, coffee and some oatmeal sense. Sweet with a warm vanilla and coffee end, a bit alc sense.

4.3 Plechovka. Pena svetlohneda, kremova, dlho drzala. Farba cierna. Vôňa vanilkova zmrzlina, kakao, susene slivky, vanilkove struky. Chuť je jemne nasytena, kyslasta , citit tmavy chleba, kavu, kakao, susene hrozno a susene slivky. V pozadi dotyk vanilky. Telo je pekne plne, dochut je silno kakaovo-kavova. Pivo je dobre vyskladane a alkohol je dobre zakryty. Fantazia!

4.4 Can. Malty aroma and taste, vanilla, chocolate, nuts, light coffee notes, light sweet, medium bitter. Full body, snooth oily texture, malty chocolate and vanilla bitter sweet finish with light warming alcohol at the absolute finish. Very good.

4.3 Pours motor oil black with dark tan head. Smell of coffee, chocolate, vanilla and musk lollies. Taste is vanilla, chocolate, dark chocolate. Sensational beer.

4.2 Pours soy sauce with almost no foam. Aroma is vanilla. Taste is a viscous bitter vanilla. Palate is wonderful.
