blipp (809), Grand Island, New York, USA Feb 8, 2008 Updated: Apr 16, 2008 Bottle. Pours black with a brown head. Roasted malt aroma with chocolate and a hint of alcohol. Medium full body. Flavor has chocolate and roasted malt notes, but also a very off putting alcoholic astringency. I love stouts but this one just doesn’t do it for me.
kempicus (191), Wellington, New Zealand Oct 6, 2008 Tried thanks to Poperinge! What a beer, the inspiration for me to brew my own imperial stout....turned out well but not nearly as good as this! This is an awesome beer, massive chocolate and dark fruit goodness with a hint of smoke! kegbear (101), Orange, California, USA Oct 6, 2008 Bottle 2007. Pours a dark black with small light brown head. Aroma of bitter chocolate and coffee. Tastes of chocolate, roasted malt and coffee. Some alcohol present. Very nice. Chia (23), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA Oct 3, 2008 pours quarter in dark tan head. Looks like interminable darkness. Aroma is full of toasty oats and chocolate with undertones of coffee. Flavor is robust and full off chocolate and roasty toasty oats and coffee.
magnificant jeffwilliams11 (275), hooterville, Michigan, USA Oct 3, 2008 pours dark black with a thick brown head. aroma is full of chocolate and dark roasted malts, some coffee in the backgound. flavor is very rich and smooth, full chocolate, roastieness. incredibally drinkable, the only clue to its high alcohol content is the warmth going down your throat. stobbe74 (254), Denmark Sep 29, 2008 Bottle, 12 fl. oz. Pours a pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor follows the nose. The mouthfeel is bold and pleasant. A very good chocolatestout.
