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.

Bottle from Plan B, Copenhagen. Dark and rich foir sure, but a little too sweet for me (for an Impy that is). Not the grainy, hardcore hoppy blackness that I hoped for. Still nice, but not the ultimate.

Bottle. Dark, with a lovely ruby tone. Easy drinking, but the quality is in the finish, with coffee, port, fruit and a warmth from the alcohol.

[Bottle from System Bolaget] Aroma is roasted coffee, vinous, berry fruit, tar. Medium bodied, dry and sweet. Not really big enough.

Bottle. Thanks to jsquire for sharing this one. Small tan head that mostly diminished, lackluster lacing, no visible carbonation, opaque, and a black hue. Roasty, coffee, some chocolate notes and licorice. Flavor was roasty, coffee, malty, and chocolate. Smooth mouthfeel. Nicely done and worthy of a try IMO.

(Bottle BB 05/13) Roasted malty, licorice and coffee aroma. Black (reddish) colour and small, brownish, more or less fully diminishing head with fair lacing. Burned/roasted malty, coffee, licorice, slightly bitter and sweet flavour. Dry, creamy, softly carbonated and medium to full-bodied palate with a hint of alcohol. Good imperial stout but not as tasty as Slottskällans’ respective one! 05/11/06 (original rating was 8/4/8/4/15)

RBESG 2006, bottle. Dark reddish brown colour, nearly black. Very nice roasty aroma, notes of bakery, coffee, liquorice and dark chocolate. Nice roasty flavour with rye bread and coffee notes, hints of chocolate. A very good stout.

Aroma is roasted and a bit vinous. Taste is similar balanced and quite good.
