2.8 Cerveza de extrema dureza, con sabores torrefactos.

2.6 La mejor opción si en vez de tomar café quieres continuar con el pedo

3.7 Flaske: Sortbrun klar øl med noget bundfald og et lækkert cremet centimetertykt skumhoved. Duften er malt og masser af lakrids. Spids men ikke som en engelsk impy. Klassisk belgisk har jeg lyst til at sige ovenpå De Dolle for nylig. Smagen er igen masser af lakrids. Bid i enden. Fin øl.

4.0 Bottle online from Beerhouseshop.be. Pours pitch black with a huge thick foamy beige head. Aromas of roasted malts, coffee and a little chocolate. Taste is the same again with some added dark fruit tones with hints of liquorice and brown sugar. A nice long roasty bitter finish. Full body with a silky smooth creamy mouthfeel. Very nice flavourful Stout.

4.0 Botella de @DeCervecitas, Online. 17/09/2020. Color negro opaco corona de espuma beige, aromas tostados, café, sabor café tostados notas frutos secos, cuerpo sedoso.

3.5 Liquid is black as night, large head. Sweet aroma of malt. Medium body, average carbonation. Taste is sweet, banana.

3.9 Pours a deep, dark mahogany coloration with an amber hue when held up to light, with a large, creamy, lasting head. Smells of roasted malt and strong coffee and estery spice aromas, as well as hints of chocolate and dark/estery fruit. Taste follows the nose, with a great balance of roasted malt, strong coffee and estery spice, with notes of clove and vanilla, and lighter chocolate and dark/estery fruit, with notes of fig, raisins and just a hint of banana and red berries, as well as accents of licorice, peat smoke and herbal, earthy hops. Finishes with a medium bitterness and some roasted malt, coffee and estery spice lingering in the aftertaste. Full, almost creamy, mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation. A great "Belgian" Stout that is heavy on the estery yeast notes and coffee, with quite a roasted, dry and bitter character as well as some chocolate, licorice and dark fruits also coming through. There's a great balance and depth of flavor to this, as well as a rather nice, almost creamy mouthfeel. Perhaps not a great Russian Imperial Stout, but certainly an excellent Belgian Imperial Stout, which is what this should be rated as.

Final suave, ligeramente dulce, acaramelado. Leve densidad en boca.

4.7 Pitch black with a thick beige head. Spicy aroma, licorice. Rich taste, very intense, yet well-balanced, silky. Taste is spice, berry, coffee, gently bitter. Very good.

3.9 Fles 33cl thuis. Redelijk vol, chocolade, caramel, rood fruittonen, koffie, bitter, zacht, wat lactose, klein zoetje. Goede balans. Prima. (14-2-2020).

4.0 Bière 33 cl achetée chez Vanuxeem à Comines. Jolie bière foncée à mousse beige crème. Nez vineux, fruits rouges, lacté, crème, frangipane, poire. Bouche sur du torréfié bien charpenté, caractère bien développé qui surprend presque après la douceur du nez. Vraiment très sympa.

3.8 330ml bottle in 2016. Very dark ruby with a thin beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, dried fruits, dates, dark malt, spicy notes and pepper. Good mouthfeel. Some roasty flavours cutting through treacle and dark fruits.

3.6 Dark brown, almost black. Brown head, soapy, three fingers, good retention, beautiful lacing. Some sediment. Difficult to see the carbonation through the darkness. Texture is between oily and creamy with soft fizz. Aroma is caramel, ripe fruits, tobacco, hints of black chocolate and liquorice. Hint of acidity in nose -yeasty notes, maybe?-. Taste is caramel, ripe fruits, dried fruits, tobacco, liquorice, black chocolate, herbal hints at the end. Soft sweetness. Just a hint of acidity. Soft bittersweet finish with the alcohol well integrated. Bitterness, toasted malt, liquorice and ash hints in aftertaste. Belgian vibes mixed with Stout vibes. Interesting and really enjoyable.

4.5 Meilleure stout jamais goûtée, avec une touche d'acidité en plus de la saveur des stouts traditionnelles, et son côté belge apportant plu plus de puissance, que ce soit au goût ou au niveau du degré d'alcool

4.3 à l'afût Rouen. Très bonne bière au goût torréfié , belle robe noire , longueur en bouche intéressante . Très bonne trouvaille.

3.3 6,5

3.5 Coffee, chocolate, farmhouse, straw and dark malt. The same applies to the taste. Slightly bitter aftertaste that fills the upper part of the mouth for a long time. Good beer. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.

4.1 Nice imperial, very tasty and rich, just the way it should be. So far this brewer is not letting me down.

3.0 Kolor ciemno brązowy z rubinowymi refleksami. Piana beżowa, bardzo wysoka i trwała. Bardzo ładnie oblepia szkło. Aromat jest dość dziwny jak na Stout, jest słodowo drożdżowy z elementami trawiastymi. Bardzo głęboko schowane są nuty ciemnych owoców, a paloność jest dosłownie minimalna. W smaku jest lepiej choć też bez rewelacji. Miodowa słodowość miesza się z lekkimi nutami ciemnych owoców, delikatnej paloności, kojarzącej się z mieloną kawą i to by było tyle. W posmaku pozostaje goryczka lekko kawowa, trochę "szorstka". Alkohol schowany idealnie. Wysycenie średnie, piwo charakteryzuje spora ilość ciała, płyn ma fakturę miękką i gładką. Uwagi: pije się całkiem dobrze, tyle tylko, że ze Stout'em ma to piwo niewiele wspólnego.

4.0 Rigtig fin Stout

4.0 Donkerbruin bier. Een goeie volle kraag en smaakt lekker robuust.

3.4 Bottle. Pours a dark amber brown color with a small off-white head. Has a roasted malty spicy caramel aroma. Roasted malty spicy caramel flavor. Has a roasted malty spicy caramel finish.

4.3 De Decervecitas. En copa Teku. Viendo Umbrella Academy 1x10. 6 meses pasada de fecha. Muy belga. Dulce, con un rico tostado muy adecuadamente combinado con un perfil azucarado tipicamente belga.

3.7 Dark brown pour with medium sized tan head. Dark chocolate, roasted malts, burnt sugar, espresso, fudge, toast and black licorice for aroma. Over medium bitter, halfway medium sweet. Thick body with medium carbonation. Very enjoyable.

2.9 Feb 2019. 330ml dark bottle, unfiltered, from BeerWulf. I like impy stout so I'm predisposed to this. Yeah, it's yummy. As a beer, it's great. As an impy stout its actually a bit meh. It starts off a tad too sweet. Then becomes a tad too bland. Then there's just a tad too much crude bitterness in the finish. It's a clumsy brew. Impy stout is dead easy to make. It's a beginner home brewers dream. You can make it from a a bargain basement Irish Stout home brewing kit by just using 1/4 or less of the water, and it'll taste decent. So, while I like this, I'm a tad disappointed at the lack of character and finesse. Go try Harvey's Imperial Stout for a taste of what can be done.

3.3 Тяжёлый терпкий вкус. Чувствуется ржаная горечь. Стауты не люблю, поэтому трудно оценить по достоинству.

4.3 Robe brune presque noire, belle mousse crémeuse. Un nez classique de stout sur le chocolat noir, le café, le malt torréfié, sur un coté lacté et crémeux. Bouche à l'attaque à la fois ample et acidulée, puissante et concentrée, avec une bulle onctueuse et une longue finale chocolatée. Une belle bière de fin de soirée.

3.2 Bouteille datée du 09/01/2018, bue après un an. Robe rougeâtre très foncée où flottent plusieurs petites particules et surmontée d'un col de mousse beige et dense. Drôle de visuel pour un impérial stout. Arômes de sucre d'orge, pruneau, anis, malt plus grillé que torréfié, figue, eau d'érable, poire, caramel... Je suis plus que perplexe en voyant "Impérial Stout" sur la bouteille. En bouche, c'est tout aussi déconcertant, goût assez sucré et bourré de petits fruits séchés, saveurs grillées plus intenses laissant d'ailleurs une forte amertume entremêlée de houblons herbacés et un peu résineux. Cette amertume continue et on retrouve quelques noix, arbrisseaux, feuilles mortes. Texture huileuse/liquoreuse au début mais qui devient rapidement sèche, corps moyen. Vraiment une drôle de bière. Des arômes de vin d'orge, un goût de scotch ale et supposément un impérial stout. On est loin des grandes pointures européennes qu'on retrouve en Hollande, Danemark ou pays Baltes.

3.5 Oklar mörkbrun med tunt beige skum. Doftar fruktigt och sött, lite maltigt. Smaken fyllig, söt, lite kola, toffé och rostad malt. Eftersmaken lång med söta, lite brända toner, på slutet tämligen besk.

3.5 33cl bottle. A almost black beer with a mid-sized most good lasting beige head. Aroma of dark fruits, raisins, mild roasted malt, liquorice. Taste of dark moderate sweet malt, chocolate, raisins, some liquorice, red fruits.
