Black Albert - 33cl
Black Albert is an impressive Russian Imperial Stout brewed by De Struise Brouwers in Oostvleteren, Belgium. This beer, with an alcohol content of 13%, is a tribute to King Albert II, nicknamed the "smiling king".
Taste and Aroma: Black Albert offers a complex flavor experience with notes of bitter chocolate, freshly roasted coffee beans, barley, candied sugar, and a range of fruity and floral hop aromas. The beer has a thick, tar-like body and a strong caramel-colored foam head that holds up well despite the high alcohol content.
Appearance: When poured, Black Albert presents itself as a deep black liquid with an inch of dark brown foam that slowly recedes. The appearance alone invites a rich and intense drinking experience.
Background: This beer was first brewed in 2007 and has since been a staple in the top 100 best beers in the world. It was originally created as a tribute to Ebenezer’s Pub in Lovell, Maine (USA), and has since become one of the flagship beers of De Struise Brouwers.
Drinking Experience: Despite the high alcohol content, Black Albert is surprisingly drinkable. Each sip offers a bombardment of roasted bitterness and the unique sweetness of real Belgian candied sugar. It is a beer to be savored slowly, ideal for lovers of complex and powerful stouts.
