🏴🏴 un impérial stout vieilli en fût, gardé deux ans en cave. On est bien sur des notes de chocolat noir, de banane et de céréales grillées. Le côté barrel aged est bien présent. Un stout plein de rondeur et bien alcooleux. Ça réchauffe les papilles.

As close as you ever will get to a 10 out of 10 or 5 out of 5 in this review. For a stout it bloody fantastic. So smooth bo sharpness to it. Its nicely sweeted with a oh so lovely banana twist to it. You will be wrong not to try it even if it is an 11.4

Smells of banana, taste is banana with a slight bitterness and a nice roasted malt aftertaste

It’s only downfall is the sweetness. Otherwise this dark black fluid with a quickly dissipating weak head is wonderful. Lots of banana flavour and not so much stout.

Journée banane après le semi marathon de Paris 🍌
L'amertume présente mais moderée et contrebalancée par la texture onctueuse, les notes de bananes se font sentir, celles de chocolat beaucoup moins, avec sur l'arrière plan de légères notes grillées, le tout enveloppé par des notes d'alcool
A l'inverse, le côté vieilli en fûts ne se fait pas du tout ressentir

En attendant l'arrivée des chars une petite is à la banane, dès le début cela resort étonnamment bien et accompagné du chocolat qui arrive derrière cela fait un bon mélange. C'est riche et gras on retrouve en longueur des arômes de bourbon, barrel aged oblige.
