Review: 0,33l Bottle of Zombräu Motor Oil, an Imperial Stout: 7.5% ABV
Motor Oil, what a great name for a beer, and especially for a stout, very good. "200% Stout, Guaranteed satisfaction" written on the bottle, ok I guess but a 100% would be good enough for me!"
As you would expect, a pitch black colour with a smallish white head on pour.
The aroma is pleasant, a typical stouty smell of dark chocolate, roasted malts, espresso, caramel, all detected. A nice aroma.
On the taste, I get the chocolate, the dark malts and the caramel, some licorice
Very smooth tasting stout, very nice, light too, not too bitter, and I like the espresso soft taste in the background. The alcohol is well balanced with the roasty flavours, well hidden.
It is a good effort from the German boys here. I mean it is never going to be like a Guinness or whatever but its not a bad stout. I do think stouts (and Porters) are the one style that is quite difficult to get right for a general brewer, as there are so many variables to think about, and the bitterness needs to be just right. This is not so complex but definitely drinkable and quite easy to relax with.
Not bad, some good black oil to get the old engine kicking on again.
