UPDATED: FEB 24, 2021 (355ml B2? bottle @ Himmeriget, Copenhagen, Aug 3/19) Pours pitch black with a small pale tan ring. Notes of prominent apple brandy and even apple flesh, dark chocolate, molasses, vanilla, moderate plus bitter roasted grains, black coffee accents, quite sweet in the nose and at the start of the sip but with apple brandy warmth building through the sip and giving quite the oak and spirit drydown, finish is brandy-inflected dark chocolate and vanilla with moderate toasty roast and wood. Medium-full oily body with rather soft carbonation. Intense stuff, not quite as balanced as I'd imagined from the things people said of B1 bottles but really good barrel character here.

UPDATED: MAR 12, 2020 0.355l bottle from 'Beergium', bottled in May 2016, cellared for over three years. Pitch black with a thin, beige layer. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty aroma of praline, hazelnut, vanilla, some coffee and a touch of brandy. Fairly sweet, malty, gently roasty and a little fruity taste of praline, hazelnut, vanilla, mild coffee and brandy, followed by a long, gently roasty-bitter, quite warming and just a little boozy finish. Full body, smooth and oily mouthfeel, almost flat. Lovely beer, perfectly balanced, accompanied by delicious flavours from the barrel. Great Imperial Stout from Prairie again!

UPDATED: MAY 27, 2019 12oz bottle. Pours a pitch black in color and capped by a small, dense tan layer of foam that settles quickly and mostly rejoins the body below. The aroma is really nice and shows notes of rich, dark chocolate, fudge, dark roasted coffee, and cooked apples over a dark roasted malt base with notes of brandy and vanilla from the barrels. The flavor follows suit with the rich, dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and fudge up front and backed up by the dark roasted malts with further notes of apples, brandy, and vanilla from the oak to smooth things out and add depth. There’s just a touch of booze as well. Full bodied and smooth with soft carbonation that’s leads to a dark chocolate, apple, roasted coffee, and brandy soaked oak on the finish with lingering notes of vanilla and something warmth from the alcohol. Really damn good stuff that takes a good base imperial stout and elevates to another level with the apple brandy barrel. Awesome beer.

UPDATED: APR 9, 2019 Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a glass. Black with small beige head. Aroma is chocolate, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is apple, chocolate, and some wood.
