It has a deep brown, nearly black, color with a medium tan head. The aroma is pretty mild with subtle chocolate malt. The texture is silky and it coats the mouth nicely. The taste is dark chocolate and some caramel with decent coffee finish and aftertaste.

Dark dark brown- almost black with a tan sudsy head that dissipates into a ring. Aroma is roasted barley, some oatmeal sugar, slight chocolate, and some nasal warming alcohol. Flavor is chocolate and roasted barley with hints of coffee and caramel. Palate is medium to full bodied with lively effervescence and a creamy, dry-roast finish.

Poured dark brown with ruby highlights. An ample tan head formed. The aroma was chocolate and dark fruits with some roasted malts coming through. The flavor was dark fruits and chocolate with very little in terms of coffee or roasted malts coming out. The mouthfeel was on the thin side for an IS. Meh.

Has a nice black color. Aroma is of coffee, malts, chocolate, and roasted nuts. Taste is pretty much the same. Has a sweeter aftertaste. Good stuff!

12 oz Bottle. Full bodied dark brown color with a thick head. A malty smell with hint of caramel in the taste. Doesn’t sit as heavily as imperial stouts go. Very drinkable and certainly recommended.

12 oz. Bottle. Pours a nice dark brown/black color. Poured a nice medium head. Smelled of malts and some hints of coffee. Similar tastes. Good beer. Recommended.
