Bevis Maun is drinking an Imperial Stout by Clan Brewing Company at Untappd at Home
Bottle that was part of a four pack and purchased in the mist of time. Pours a jest black body with bice tight tan head. Aroma is Speyside and tannins and treacle. Flavour is all that aged aging and rich molasses

From a twelve ounce brown bottle, the beer pours a thin but foamy off-white head. The aroma has a light wood and smoke nose, mixed with smooth vanilla scent. Serious whiskey in the aroma. The taste is underwhelming, though. Light in body and hollow in taste. This beer could have been so much more.

330 ml bottle, from the Norwegian importer. ABV is 8%. Black colour, low beige head. Moderate aroma of roast malts, smooth whisky, vanilla, mild coffee and chocolate. The roasty flavour is not too sweet, but has fairly distinct notes of smoke, whisky, vanilla, and coffee. Not bad at all, but my expectations were higher.

A 330ml bottle with a best before date of end of February 2019 and poured into a snifter glass.
Appearance: It poured a dark dark brown colour with a less than one finger tanned head which dissipates fast but left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: Chocolate, dark malt, hints of raisin, cream, light whisky and maybe a touch of caramel and lemon on the finish.
Taste: Chocolate, molasses, toffee, hints of dark berries, very light whisky, maybe some slight char but not much barrel.
Mouthfeel: Very light for an Imperial Stout, maybe too light in my opinion. Barely medium bodied with moderate to low carbonation and dry.
Overall: If this was a Stout, I think I would have rated it higher, but as an Imperial Stout, it’s just not quite there. Everything just seemed to be too light whereas I was looking for more punches as an Imperial Stout. This was especially true with the barrel aging, which did not seem to impart as much as it could have in both aroma and taste. It is by no means a bad beer, but I had both BCBS and KBS in the last week which is perhaps setting a rather high standard.
