Mar 18, 2009 330 ml bottle. Deep, dark brown colour, thin light brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate and a whiff of dark fruits. Strongly roasted, a little burnt flavour with coffee and plenty of chocolate. Dry, ashy bitter finish. Smooth, oily, full-bodied, low carbonation. A very enjoyable stout.

Jun 19, 2009 Cellar run at the Rake. Almost black with a tan head and good conditioning. Smooth and roasty with nice warm alcohol kick and pleny of chocolate. Would have liked a few more hops but still a cracking pint.

Nov 1, 2009 bottle from Berts Bierhuis Utrecht. Pours a dark beer with a decent, brownish head. Hints of roasted malts and coffee in the aroma. Taste is also roasted malts and coffee. Bitter with an strong aftertaste. Very good Imperial Stout. Like to try this one, or other beers by BrewDog, again!

Oct 15, 2008 The base for all of the barrel aged imperial stouts. Pours very dark brown, close to black, with a smooth tan head. Big dark chocolate character, very smooth palate, dry finish. Overall a really nice imperial stout and the perfect base for their barrel experiments. This is one of the few non-barrel beers I thought were worth their price, very well built and solid imperial stout.

Jul 4, 2009 Lots of UK yeast strain permeates this Imperial Stout. Orchard fruit undertones buffer the coffee/choco flavors that reside in the middle of each taste. A sugary spicy finish ends up completing the thought, with spot on bitterness, whilst leaving one’s palate slightly moist for the next gulp. Alcohol presence is less than detectable for an 8% stout, but overall mouthfeel and viscosity is a tad underwhelming. Slightly thinner than I’d enjoy, with less carbonation than most comparable brews.
