A rich and creamy porter with aromas of dark chocolate, butterscotch, and freshly brewed coffee. This style of porter was the Balkan's interpretation of Imperial Stouts - very strong, dense beers commissioned from London porter breweries in the 1780s by Catherine the Great. Expect flavours of fig jam and apple treacle with a gentle bitter finish. Pairs well with oysters, smoked fish, stews and sticky toffy pudding. Bottled at 9.5%.
