Pours a beautiful black with a nice tan head that laces the glass. Aroma is chocolate along with sweet malt. Flavor has the chocolate notes along with a very nice smokiness. Maybe my imagination but I get a bit of the bay in the taste. Just a touch of saltiness. Finish is extremely creamy and smooth. Very good.

Dec 3, 2009 Appearance: Pours a beautiful black with a super active creamy head. Once the show is over, a 1/4 inch dense creamy layer remains.
Aroma: Dry roasty malt and touches of coffee and chocolate.
Taste: Dry roasty malt, sharp spicy (almost metalic) bitter hops, and a layer of spiciness that I’ve encountered in beers with Chipotle peppers.
Mouthfeel: Dry, and spicy warmth on the back of my throat.
Overall: A fantastic beer, complex beer that should go with a hearty plate of food. Seems like a lot of care was put into this, and could have easily been a throw everything at the wall Imperial Stout.

Dec 2, 2009 750ml Bottle: Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, light coffee, and slight minerals. Poured pitch black in color with a medium-sized, brown head that greatly diminished but lasted around the edges and as a film on top of the beer. Opaque. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is medium sweet and slightly bitter. Tastes of roasted malts, chocolate, espresso, slight toffee, slight minerals, slight caramel, and a hint of sea salt. Medium to full body. Smooth, velvety, slightly thick texture turns lightly dry. Average carbonation. Roasted malt, chocolate, light espresso, light caramel, and slight sea salt finish is lightly dry.
