Poured a clear dark brown color with a large frothy brown head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy roasted chocolate, dark fruit and alcohol aroma. Heavy bittersweet roasted malty flavor with a heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. Full body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation.
This is a very good beer.
Savvy1982 (303), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada Jul 30, 2009 Bottle. Pours reddish-black, with almost no head, just a skim of tan foam across the surface of the beer. Poor/spotty lacing. Nose is appropriately roasty, with loads of dark fruits nearly running to flowers. A very feminine Imperial Stout in many respects. Coffee and chocolate begin to come out as the beer warms, and it slowly becomes more assertive. Chocolate cake, dark malt, and a bit of smoke emerge with time. Palate is soft, slightly sweet, and mouthcoatingly earthy. Mushrooms, dank cellar, wet leaves, nice roast, some dark fruit, milk chocolate, coffee, which slowly turns quite ashy in the finish. Booze is nicely hidden, and it has a certain port-like character to it. Ober (1165), Bommelerwaard, Netherlands Jul 27, 2009 An almost black colored beer, with a thick foamy beige head. The aroma of burned malts with fruits like dark cherries with some raisins. The taste id dry, there smoked malt, bitter of chocalte with some little sweets of fruits. The aftertaste is dry bitter with smoke and a little spices. madsberg (4873), Søborg, Denmark Jul 26, 2009 Bottled. Dark reddish brown coloured. Fluffy small light brown head.
