Evil Twin Brewing
Brewed at BrewDog
Style: Imperial Stout
Valby, Denmark
I didn't split the two (yin and Yang) but would like to knock out both reviews first. Then I will spit the two imperials and describe the "black and tan."
Black with a small brown creamy lumpy head. A large amount of fresh ground espresso on the nose, along with a good deal of chocolate, a bit of acidic burnt malts, perhaps some caramel, and some fruity/berrylike notes. Just a hint of alcohol as it warms to room temperature. The flavour is, as expected, packed with coffee, and along with the burnt malts, it gives this ale quite a bit of bitterness. This is nicely balanced by a healthy dose of sweet chocolate. Semidry finish. It’s fairly thick bodied, with soft but generous carbonation. Coats the mouth pretty well. All in all, this is nothing new or exciting, but it’s damn well made. Great balance, tons of flavour, and nothing fans of imp stouts wouldn’t love.
