What a bizarre day of WT racing we've had. We need a strong beer to soothe frazzled nerves in another spectacular edition of /WORLD TOUR WINE/ !!
Today's stage in Poland began and finished in Wałbrzych, but our beer is from same brewery as first stage in Miroslaw. Interestingly enough this is brewed with Ukranian hops. This is sort of a reverse Chernobyl situation -- in Chernobyl, Polish uranium was used to build the Ukranian reactor, while in this beer, Ukranian hops were used to brew this Polish beer.
Komes Imperial Stout ($7)
Parks dark brown with caramel highlights. No head to speak of. The nose is very raisinated, with toffee and roasted malt. The palate is just toffee and booze. It is very hot at 12%. There is some hop bitterness, a little bit of sour tang, but it is so dense, sweet, and boozy.
Not nearly as well put together as the Baltic porter. This will be a chore to drink, not my style and very heavy. Sad!
