Imperial Stout 9.5 º

Dugges Bryggeri

This Imperial Stout presents a powerful and velvety sensory experience, driven by an abundance of dark malts that create a deep, midnight-black profile. The aroma is rich with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of black licorice, supported by a subtle hop presence that reflects its modern American influences. On the palate, it delivers a smooth yet intense wave of roasted grains, bittersweet cocoa, and dried dark fruits like raisins. The high alcohol content provides a gentle, integrated warmth that complements the chewy, full-bodied texture, finishing with a balanced, lingering bitterness and a touch of roasted dryness.

Appearance. Opaque, jet black (40+ SRM). A dense, dark tan to deep brown head with moderate retention and significant lacing. High viscosity is apparent with visible legs in the glass.

Aroma. High intensity; dominated by rich roasted malt characters of dark chocolate, cocoa, and heavy-roast coffee. Moderate esters suggestive of prunes and black currants. Low but noticeable resinous and earthy hop aroma. Integrated alcohol warmth is present without sharpness.

Taste. Intensely flavored with a complex blend of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and lightly burnt grain. Significant dark fruit esters of figs and plums emerge in the mid-palate. High bitterness provides a firm balance against the rich malt, leading to a long, lingering finish of roast and resinous hop character. Powerful yet smooth, avoiding a syrupy finish.

Mouthfeel. Full-bodied with a chewy, luscious, and velvety texture. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth that provides a comforting glow. No significant grain astringency.
