Roasted aroma, coffee but also alcohol, spirit; burnt; classic Imperial Stout nose.In the mouth all the shades of caramel-roasted, big body but not as exaggerately thick as som US IS, more winey; alcohol. Bitter finish. IMO an english style Imperial stout. on the line of Harveys/Courage Russian stouts... quite a challenging comparison!

Black, viscous pouring beer with no head to speak of. Concentrated coffee, aged in brandy barrel, very complex. Liquid black chocolate, with a dash of expensive brandy, cacao powder with coffee to round it off (like cappucino the other way round). Superbly viscous alcohol to a bomb, wow! <i> Caro Massimo! Stop making light beers. Your destination lies in the higher alcohols - like this. It rocks! Mille grazie for the tasting! </i>
