Jan 19, 2009 (12oz bottle) Courtesy of Oakes. Sampled with Enniskillen. Pours a lasting beige, foamy head atop an opaque body. Nose of ashtray, coffee and bourbon. Very robust flavour - somewhat sour coffee, red wine. Interesting but something too atypical. Strange. 6/4/4/2/9

Jan 8, 2009 Bottle. Moderate malt and hop aromas of burnt and resin, light earth for the yeast and background smells of wood and sour milk. Head is average size, frothy, light brown with fair lacing and is mostly diminishing. color is black. Flavor starts heavily acidic and sour and finishes moderately acidic, bitter and sour. Palate is medium, creamy with a soft carbonation and a moderately astringent finish. This was hard to finish...bad bottle?

Dec 28, 2008 This poured black in color with a moderate fluffy head of beige bubbles. Aromas were of chocolate, sweetened plum and fig, coffee and bubblegum. In the mouth it was medium bodied, sweet and concentrated with balancing carbonation. It was not very complex in the mouth but was rich and balanced.

Dec 27, 2008 The pour is quite black. Some chocolate and malt aroma, maybe a bit of coffee. The taste is a decent blend of semi-sweet chocolate, malt, roasted coffee, and a bit of caramel. A decent offering, not top notch, but pretty good.

Dec 27, 2008 Floral hops, grains, and honey in the aroma. Opaque pour and bubbly tan head. Pretty bready for a stout, with some sweetness and a fair amount of acidity. Some smoky coffee and caramel flavors too. Funny label. A little light for an imperial stout, but flavorful and drinkable. Anchors away on another good brew in the Heavy Seas series.
