| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 7, 2009 One can notice the evolution of ordinary version of Gonzo imperial porter - the hop flavour and smell has faded away, but the new oak and bourbon flovours has developed. But there is still something which resembles the original imperial porter.
All in all, an outstanding brew. Very smooth, maybe on a sweet side. Considering the strength there is suprisingly not much alcohol taste. hirigalzkar (600), Stockholm, Sweden
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 5, 2009 Bottle. Not as good as the regular gonzo. This one is a bit more shy. Interesting mint tone in taste.
