shawnm213 (879), South Bend, Indiana, USA Mar 30, 2009 sweet choclolate coffee. bottle. not bad at all! shared this bottle with ron. thanks josarah (106), Hinesburg, Vermont, USA Mar 30, 2009 Draft at brewpub. Black color, thick brown head, coffee aroma. This is the imperial coffee stout! The robust coffee flavor is heightened and sweetened by the over abundant presence of alcohol. Truly a great beer, just a tad to high alcohol for my taste. Joakgust (320), Stockholm, Sweden Mar 28, 2009 Bottle, 34,1cl - Pitch black beer with a large coffee brown head. The aroma, like sniffing right into an ashtray where coffee, dark chocolate and charcoal has been burned and grinded down. The flavor is as dry as an espresso mixed with some vanilla and chocolate. Truly amazing experience. Make sure that u aren’t planning on drinking or eating anything after this though. Peche Mortel, the destroyer of other beers... yobdoog (1420), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Mar 27, 2009 This is one of the riches most powerful brews I have had, notes:Super rich body, nose of super rich coffee, heavy espresso and some dark bitter chocolate. Taste is very heavy. A bit too much alcohol for me and has more bitterness than I expected. LadySusan (462), Ste-Therese, Quebec, Canada Mar 25, 2009 Taster at Le Festival Bieres et Saveurs Chambly 08. The color is black with a thick beige head. The aroma is of coffee. The taste is of espresso, coffee, malt and more malt. This one really packs a punch. VTHopHead (895), Barre, Vermont, USA Mar 22, 2009 Bottle - Poured a very dark black/brown in color with a small tan head that faded to cover the beer. Aroma is lots of coffee and darkly roasted malts, some of them providing a slight sweetness. .Flavor is slightly sweet and very strong in coffee and (too) darkly roasted malts... a bit burnt tasting. Thick palate. Finish is sweet and heavy with coffee. Not as good as I had hoped for (based on ratings), but make no mistake, this is still very good beer. Juancho (225), Clearwater Beach, Georgia, USA Mar 21, 2009 Bottle @ Gingerman.... from mr . Jaffey. Thanks !!
Pours black with brownish highlights and an espresso crema like head. Aroma is roasted malts and sweet coffee. Mouthfeel is thick and satisfying, look at the glass and the color is impenetrable, no light shines through. Serious imperial stout, seriously delicious. Would drink it all day and night if I could ! ruggedman (613), Portland, Maine, USA Mar 18, 2009 Bottle at Novare Res.
Yes. Yes. Yes. This beer pours a dark dark blackish color with a dark brown head. You can tell this puppy means business. The aroma is well sweet malt and coffee. The flavor is the same sweet malt and coffee. But the marriage in this beer is what’s important. The flavors meld together in perfect sweet harmony. It’s like liquid coffee beer bliss, this is utterly fantastic.
