Commercial Description:
Nils Oscar Imperial Stout is brewed only in a limited edition. Also Nils Oscar Imperial Stout was awarded as the best beer in the world. This beer is brewed with many varieties of hops and malt, nothing saved to make the stout full of character. Imperial Stout is best enjoyed combined with the dessert but works wonderfully with oysters. The Nils Oscar Imperial Stout can be enjoyed today but preferably mature a couple of years.

I must have gotten a bad bottle, based on other reviews of this beer. It was flat, lifeless, tasted like wood ash & burnt celery. Total drain pour. Maybe I’ll rate it again, then again, maybe not.

Dark color. Smell of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, caramel, hops, malt, dark fruit and minor spice. Taste of the same but very rich. Very solid. Very nice impy stout.

Bottle from a mixed case via Phil L’s Cave Direct, Beer Merchants Sept 08 Pours very dark brown with beige head. Chocolate, coffee and a real sweetness mark this one out, its an ok beer but nothing special.

Murky dark brown pour with some dark cream head. Some roast coffee and malt aromas. Smooth with a small amount of carbonation. Roasty, mocha, a little sweet malt, coffee. Clean finishing. Med/full bodied. The lower abv definetely makes this a non-standard Imperial. It’s less edgy, but very drinkable and very good. This might even be a little under rated.

The Dan Journal #241. Tasted 8/26/08. 12oz bottle. Pitch and hazy hued. Bubbled beige head. Coffee malt aromas. Rich and full bodied. Bitter and sticky malts. Coffee and figs. Chocolate and spicy. Long lingering finish. This is stellar!
