This decadent Russian Imperial Stout offers an immersive sensory journey through layers of mocha and dark chocolate. Built on a complex base of Extra Pale, Wheat, Cara, and Smoked malts, complemented by Black and Roasted Barley, it delivers a deeply roasty core. Infusions of cacao nibs and crushed coffee beans drive intense espresso and bittersweet cocoa notes, while vanilla pods and toasted oak chips provide a velvety, wood-etched finish. Despite the firm bitterness from Cascade, Fuggles, and Goldings hops, the character remains extravagantly smooth. It is a potent, warming experience that balances luxurious sweetness with a charred, sophisticated complexity.
Appearance.Jet black and completely opaque (40 SRM). Pours with a thick, well-formed, deep tan to dark brown head that shows moderate retention and leaves significant lacing. Visible viscosity is apparent in the form of slow-moving legs on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity, featuring a rich blend of bittersweet chocolate, roasted coffee, and charred grain. Subtle notes of wood-smoke and toasted oak are present, alongside a sweet, creamy vanilla character. Low earthy and floral hop notes from Fuggles and Goldings complement a background of dark fruit esters resembling raisins and prunes.
Taste.Intense and complex, with an initial impression of dark chocolate and espresso. A robust malt backbone of toast and charred grain from the Roasted Barley and Black malt is balanced by a moderate to firm bitterness. Infusions of cacao and coffee beans provide a lingering bittersweet luxury, while vanilla and oak chips add a smooth, rounded dimension. The finish is long and warming with a touch of wood-tannin and smoke.
Mouthfeel.Full-bodied, chewy, and viscous with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is moderate-low, providing just enough lift to the heavy frame. A noticeable, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, avoiding any harshness or solvent qualities.

Velkommen til Cocoa Psychos verden, en flydende dimension, hvor ren nydelse hersker. Oprindeligt blev denne øl brygget for omkring 250 år siden for at fejre den russiske kongelige familie. Denne 10 % Imperial Russian Stout låner alt det bedste fra den tid med sin overdådige bløde blanding af knuste kaffebønner, kakao og mørke malte.Graver man lidt dybere, forbi vaniljen og de ristede egespåner, så møder man den galskab, der kræves for at brygge denne øl; en slags sindssyge, der ville have gjort selv Rasputin stolt. For fuldt ud at frigøre aromaerne og den bittersøde luksus i denne Stout anbefaler vi, at den drikkes af et ølglas på stilk.
