Berging Brouwerij RIS22, Bourbon Infused Russian Imperial Stout
This Russian Imperial Stout offers a decadent sensory journey, driven by the integration of bourbon infusion into a robust dark malt base. Pronounced aromas of roasted coffee and dark chocolate intertwine with the fragrant influence of charred oak and soft vanilla. On the palate, the initial bittersweet chocolate gives way to complex layers of toasted wood and a buttery smoothness. The bourbon adds a sophisticated depth without overwhelming the core stout character. With a medium-full, velvety body and a lingering finish of espresso and light wood tannins, this interpretation balances intensity with a refined, warming approachability that highlights the interplay between roast and barrel character.
Appearance. Opaque jet black (SRM 40). Topped by a dense, persistent deep tan head with moderate lacing. Viscous appearance with noticeable legs upon swirling.
Aroma. High intensity. Dominated by rich roasted malt scents of espresso and bittersweet chocolate. The bourbon infusion provides distinct notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a hint of butterscotch. Low dark fruit esters of plum and raisin are present, with very low earthy hop notes.
Taste. Initial impression is of intense dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Mid-palate reveals charred oak and vanilla sweetness from the bourbon. Bitterness is medium-high, providing a firm backbone against the malt. Finishes moderately dry with a lingering roasted grain and subtle oak tannin aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a chewy, velvety texture. Carbonation is low to moderate. Noticeable, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, lacking any harshness or solvent notes.
