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.

11.2 Oz bottle purchased at Knightly Spirits in Orlado. So I though my nose was playing tricks on me. I just had Mephistopheles and Oscar smells very similar. There is a big whole whallop of coffee in the aroma, followed by some spice. But the flavor on this one is so delicate and fluffy. It just goes down so smooth and ends with a very good chocolate flavor. SO how come this isn’t labeled as a foreign stout?

[1916-20081220] 11.2floz bottle. Burnt coffee ground roast aroma. Dark brown black body with a medium-lasting creamy tan head. Roasted grounds and heavy malt flavour has lots of burnt roasty fullness. Full body. Good and drinkable.

Orlando, Fl. - Knightly Spirits - 11.2 oz bottle. Dark black pour with some purple tints - light khaki head that diminishes pretty quickly. Pleasant aroma of coffee, chocolate with hints of molasses. Good, solid stout flavor with plenty of bitter coffee notes, some bitter bakers unsweetened chocolate and just a hint of dates and raisins. Mouthfeel is clean and smooth. Very enjoyable and not overpowering.

Bottle. Black color, with a large brown head. The nose was sweet and malty, coffee and a hint of smoke. Taste roasted malt, with coffee, roasted coffee(maybe a bid tobacco) with some dryed fruit short of hiding. Great aroma a bid disapointing taste for an imperial stout.

Thanks to akevitt for sharing. Bottle, pours an almost opaque black body with red hues and a light brown head. Aroma of hot chocolate, dark malts, and brown sugar. Flavor of chocolate, burnt malts, sugar, licorice, and a hint of tar. Medium bodied with a cocoa finish. The mouthfeel is rather watery, although it gets less watery as it warms.

Thanks to HogTownHarry. Appearance: Pitch black, I shone a torch through it with no result. Huge tan head. Aroma: Coffee, cream, mint with slight peat notes and a tinge of orange peel. Flavour: Creamy & milky, mild, slight coffee/tobacco, a little malt, light on carbonation, nice creamy malt finish. I must agree with Harry, not an Imperial Stout...
