330ml bottle from Bacchanalia, Mill Road, Cambridge £7.50.
Imperial Stout, Contains: Lactose.

L- Pours black, with ultra-dark 3mm dark tan cap of micro-bubbles. At 11% any foam cap is impressive. That recedes to a peripheral ring of bubbles but it holds well.
S- Super deep roasty-toasty, hints of smoke and charring.
T- Slow to build towards the big profile (nice). Then big + pungent, much charring, light smoke. Much dark cocoa with pungent liquor-ish edge. Some lactosem creamy richness (restrained). My beer is chilled, it's far away from the richness risking veering to sweetness (yet). Coffee now builds a touch as it warms a bit, versus cocoa.
F - Mega deep liquor-ish stout. The liquor note notably builds as it warms a touch but never is in-your-face/OTT. Zinging at the back of my throat. Certainly rich but does not become sweet etc.
O - It's massive. It's a big, deep, liquorish winter warmer of a slow-sippin' boutique stout. *Very* polished, zero out of place or to offend. Rich liquorish deep-stout a cocoa-coffee are the prominent features. A shot of lactose rounds off this beast without being too loud. An occasional treat/beast. Perhaps too OTT for a regular tipple.

All right imperial stout brewed with lactose, coffee and cocoa. Nice coffee presence. The lactose is a bit much there for my taste but it brings balance to this roasted brew. Not my favourite from this brewery but worth a try
