Evil Twin Yin. American Imperial Taiji Stout. Danish Brewery but brewed in Connecticut with Two Roads Brewing. 10% ABV.
Served chilled from a 12 oz bottle and poured into a snifter. Pours a pitch black color with one and a half finger tan foam head. Smells are of coffee, chocolate, roastiness and hints of raisins or figs. The carbonation is medium to light with a full body. Taste is of strong espresso. I concur with some other reviews I've seen about this one where people feel like they are drinking pure black coffee. Some of the other flavors like chocolate and dark fruits are also there. It finishes relatively bitter and boozy, but does not linger.
Two days in a row for Evil Twin reviews (and two ET stouts too!) This was a great beer. I still have I Love You With My Stout ahead of it, but this was excellent as well. Don't be surprised to see another Evil Twin review very soon.
