Baker’s chocolate with a splash of single cream and an alcohol buzz on the tonsils. A little thin for a big hitting abv.

Another outrageously good BA impy. Thick oily bourbon and cocoa but so well balanced that all the immense flavours just work in harmony.

Barry Eggleton is drinking a Storming the Emperor's Castle: BA Bourbon / Cacao by Castle Rock Brewery at Kean's Head
Thick and exceptionally rich with predominantly dark chocolate alongside intense coffee and heavily roasted malts, there's a nice vanilla and caramel sweetness that develops before finishing with slightly dry oak and bourbon whiskey.

Third. Liz Truss?! Bring on the strong beer. Best CR I've had, and seem to see Emporer being highly praised. Chocolatey whisky stout. Nice!
