298/946) Black Force One by X-Beeriment of Denmark:  **;  more accurately, this is brewed for X-Beeriement - this was brewed under contract;  this is an imperial stout brewed with 5 malts including peat smoked and roasted barley;  4 varieties of hops are used; while the label reads 10.4%, the LCBO sticker slapped on the bottle indicates 8.4%, which is quite a discrepancy;  there is a whiff of scotch to the nose; flavours of sweet chocolate;  I wasn't expecting to like this one but the smoke is not over-done;
