Commercial Description:
Brewed with brown malts, an English traditional specialty malt, we created an Imperial Russian Stout that has won prizes at festivals across Europe from Sweden to Italy. It’s big, black, roasted and complex. We are convinced that not trying this ale will be a mortal sin to your taste buds and beer experience. Oak chips have been put in 40 year old cognac and then added to the beer.

On tap. Pours an opaque black with hardly any head. Sweet Brandy aroma, coffee and chocolate. Intensely full-bodied with almost no carbonation, fat accents of hard roasted malt, vanilla and Brandy with a piquante edge of wood. Some malt bitterness in the finish combined with a warming alcohol. My kinda beer! 160509

Bottle 33cl.
Clear dark black color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is heavy malty, roasted, burnt, chocolate, spruce, wood, bourbon. Flavor is heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration. Body is medium to full, texture is syrupy, carbonation is flat. [20090516]

Bottle at KØ09. Black colour. No head. The flavour is sweet and vinous. OK roasted with a faint hint of vanilla. Very low carbonation. Mild alcohol note in the finish.

Bottled (from Ölkonsortiet, Aalborg). Pitch black colour, not much head. Aroma is coffee, liquorice, some caramel malts as well as mild sherrylike notes. Flavour is coffee, liquorice, toffee, smoke and roasted malts. All in a good balance. Yet another very balanced and pleasant brew from De Molen.

Thanks Patrik! Pours inky and pretty black. No chance of getting a head on this. The aroma is bonfire, bitter chocolate, peanuts...a big complex nose. Superviscous...coffee burn, rich chocolate...mouth-coating. There is some rum character, as opposed to cognac. This is a crazy beer, so thick. You get alcohol late and it cuts through - only slightly - the thick malts. It actually tastes quite nutricious, with a big fat oak finish. Astonishingly drinkable, as the heat is muted.

Bottle at Københavnske Øldage 2009
Black color, no head. The aroma is a bit papery, breadish, with light vanilla and cognac. Good body, excellent mix of chocolate, roasted malt, cookies, sweetness, cognac, sweet nuts, light alcohol, light coffee. Well balanced, yet powerful. Great!
