Good morning to all Advocates,
today I'm writing you a few lines about yet another excellent Imperial Stout from this Estonian brewery. Be wary of first impressions. She was a great beer.
Põhjala Brewery (Tallin, EST) - BANOFFEE BÄNGER - Imperial Stout (12,5%)
Taken from the cellar and placed in the fridge for 10/15 minutes just to cool the bottle.
This is an Imperial Stout inspired by a chocolate, banana and toffee dessert, but it's absolutely not to be connected with the (very artificial) "Pastry Stouts".
In fact, it preserves every characteristic of the classic Imperial Stout, with an addition that contributes in terms of sweetness and taste without distorting the "principle base", remaining as an additional component to a product designed to be an Imperial Stout with banana inspired by a dessert and not a liquid replica of that dessert.
As soon as it's uncorked, aromas of cocoa and banana are amplified as soon as it is poured, together with notes of light roasting that recall a light roasting of coffee.
Already from the pouring you can perceive the density of the liquid.
The color is impenetrable black, the foam is NON-EXISTENT.
Very dense and smooth body in the mouth (no carbonation).
The taste is surprisingly balanced: the main taste that I find in my mouth is that of dark chocolate, which intersects in the background with a sweet, but moderate and not at all cloying, banana flavor that fades into vanilla notes before leaving room for a really soft finish (smooth) in which very light toasted notes of almond and more cocoa come out.
The palate remains pervaded by notes of cocoa and banana, the tongue remains clean and with that delicate toasted taste that invites another sip.
