Foothills Sexual Chocolate Imperial Stout

Brewed by Foothills Brewing
Style: Imperial Stout
Winston-Salem, North Carolina USA

Bottle. Pours inky black with a medium sized brown colored head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, molasses. Flavor is chocolate, roast, coffee, molasses. Palate os full bodied, medium carbonation finished super bitter. IMO this is way over-hyped, good stuff, but far from the better stouts out there.

Thank you so much to sliffy and ogglethorp for working this out. The aroma of this one was actually better than the beer itself. I got rich coffee and dark chocolate notes from it and was pretty excited for the follow through in taste. I didn’t pick up as much of the coffee, and only a slight bit of toffee but I did get a blast of bitter cocoa. Great beer, but I even like Founders Breakfast better.

Bottle with MaltOMeal. Thanks!
Pours a rich, sans lumination black with a light beige head. Aroma is dark chocolate chunks, dark raspberry, and isopryl alcohol. Flavor is bittered coffee chocolate, with a brusque white wine finish. Rich and full mouthfeel. This beer is all hype; doesn’t stack up to the finer stouts. A good beer, for sure, but not as good as the percentile dictates.

bomber thanks to OldGrowth. This poured dark as night with a thick brown head that looked a like a chocolate milk shake. Nose is of chocolate and coffee with some ash towards the end. Taste was cocoa powder, coffee and again some ash at the end. Mouthfeel was thick like a chocolate shake and a little dry at the finish. Well made stout.

A former top-50 beer entered to celebrate my rating number 10200. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of chocolate, tar, and hops. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of roasted malt as well as notes of alcohol and oranges, leading to a dry bitter chocolate finish. Thanks Jeppe for sharing.

Rating #1600 well hell yeah! A black appearance with a moderate tan head. The aroma consists of coffee, chocolate, licorice, dark fruit, and charcoal. This is a very rich beer with a lot of chocolate showing through. Some coffee and licorice linger in the background. This reminds of Expedition in some ways. The alcohol is hidden quite well. The aftertaste is a mixture of bitter and sweet. This beer lives up to the hype. Great stuff!

bottle from frumpty dumpty: pours a very black with a good sized tan head. aroma is great roasted coffee and fantastic dark chocolate, some very deep dark fruits. flavour is a roasty chocolate, great chcocolate actually, some fruit showing up. very good.

THANKS Pepsican! As you would expect, chocolate everywhere. Smell, chocolate, taste, chocolate. Amazing mouth feel. roastiness, coffee, fruits and stuff hid behind the chocolate, but still let you know they were there. Best RIS I’ve had.
