Imperial Stout 10 º

Cervisiam

This Imperial Stout offers a punishingly intense sensory experience, true to its namesake. Deep, saturated layers of bittersweet chocolate and heavily roasted coffee dominate the profile, supported by a dense malt backbone. Aromas of dark fruit, such as black currants and figs, emerge alongside a whisper of black licorice. On the palate, a bold bitterness cuts through the initial velvet-like sweetness, leading to a complex finish of charred grain and warming alcohol. The balance of aggressive roast and luscious dark fruit creates a formidable profile that evolves with every sip, leaving a lingering impression of dark cocoa and refined, well-integrated warmth.

Appearance. Jet black and opaque (SRM 40). Features a thick, dark tan head with moderate retention and oily, visible legs that cling to the glass upon swirling.

Aroma. High intensity with a complex blend of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and black licorice. Moderate esters of prunes and raisins are present, alongside a low earthy hop character and a smooth, noticeable alcohol presence.

Taste. Intense initial impression of roasted grain and dark cocoa. Rich malt flavors of toasted bread and caramel are balanced by a firm hop bitterness. Deep fruit notes of black currant and fig emerge mid-palate, leading to a long, bittersweet finish with lingering notes of coffee and charred malt.

Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is low to moderate. A significant, smooth alcohol warmth is present but integrated, avoiding any harsh solvent qualities.
