De Molen’s Tsarina Esra has a full quarter century before it’s termed no longer “best”.
And a tasty imperial stout it is, indeed.
Black but not roasty, and nutty rather than licorice-y. Very smooth taste, the hefty ABV remains well hidden in the full body. Low carbonation and a bit oily mouthfeel further distance Tsarina from being an easy beginners’ beer.
FI: Tsaaritar pysyy parhaana pitkään.
