Jul 6, 2008 Smells like prunes. Dry, thin and way to chalky. Some sweet chocalatey roasty flavors but not enough positives to overpower the negatives in this guy.

Jun 21, 2008 12oz pour from variety pack. Nice coffee colored head to a black/dark ruby color but not a complete blackout. Not as heavy as one would expect from an Imperial stout but that can be a good thing. Nice dry stout mouthfeel with a slightly sweet flavor. Molasses maybe?? The 8% is not apparent at all and is light for an Imperial anyway. Nice beer and definitely drinkable to where you can have 2 or 3 in a row and not be full or hammered. As it came closer to room temp, more and more flavor came out. Very nice as are most of Clipper City’s beers. Would be great with a nice piece of cherry cheescake!

Jun 18, 2008 I thought this was a real nice brew. Dark smooth and packed a punch. Mouthfeel was a little watery and the palate slighty weak, but a decent, dark stout.

Jun 17, 2008 Not a whole lot of flavor. Dry, but not roasty as a porter. I couldn’t find anything wrong with it, it was certainly enjoyable to drink, but I wasn’t impressed with it whatsoever. It was like a light imperial stout. Good, but very muted.

Jun 17, 2008 12oz bottle. Thick brown head on black. Doesn’t look too thick or oily. Aroma is a bit winey but mostly chocolate and smoke. Very smooth coffee and dark chocolate flavour. A hint of a bit of tin and wine in the finish.

Jun 11, 2008 (USA) Pours a very dark brown almost black color with a dissipating tan head. Aroma is of chocolate, molasses, and roasted malt. The taste is coffee, and caramel with a very lite mouthfeel. Overall, not bad, But a bit weak of a imperial stout.
