Sofia Electric Brewing Petrohan
Imperial Stout 12.7 º
Petrohan is an opulent Imperial Stout that presents an indulgent sensory journey. The core profile of dark, bittersweet chocolate and espresso-like roasted malts is dramatically enhanced by a concentrated blueberry jam character, offering a dense, dark-fruit tartness. Real maple syrup adds layers of rich caramel and earthy sweetness, weaving through the high-viscosity body. At 12.7% ABV, a smooth, spirit-like warmth emerges, rounding out the velvety, chewy texture. This is a complex, harmonious dessert-style stout where the roast bitterness serves as a backbone to the lush, jammy fruit and decadent wood-fired maple notes.
Appearance. Color is jet black and opaque (40 SRM). It forms a dense, dark mocha-colored head with moderate retention. Due to high alcohol and maple-driven viscosity, prominent legs are visible on the glass side.
Aroma. High intensity with deep complexity. Dominant notes of cooked blueberry and fruit preserves are layered over a base of dark chocolate, black licorice, and charred grain. Distinct maple syrup sweetness provides a caramel-like depth, supported by a noticeable but smooth alcohol presence.
Taste. Initial impression is thick and jammy with concentrated blueberry sweetness balanced by moderate roasted malt bitterness. The mid-palate reveals rich maple, cocoa, and toasted bread. The finish is long and warming with a lingering bittersweet character of dark chocolate and fruit. While sweet, the roast prevents it from being syrupy.
Mouthfeel. Very full-bodied and chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is low to moderate. A significant, smooth alcohol warmth is present, reflecting the 12.7% ABV without being sharp or solventy.
