Full Sail Imperial Stout

Brewed by Full Sail Brewing Company
Style: Imperial Stout
Hood River, Oregon USA

Tap @ Full Sail PIlsener Room. Decent imperial stout, taste of chocolat and mocha. Some caramel, lacks a bit on the bitterness. Still quite ok.

22oz bottle. Good chocolate coco powder mix aroma. Black body with tan head. Flavor was good blend of chcolate, roasted malt and some oatmeal. Sweeet finish with a dry power aftertaste lingering. Had some alcohol burn on the palate also.

Pours pitch black with a thin tan head. Has a roasty aroma that reminds me of coffee. Has a medium heavy body with a fair amount of carbonation. Taste is dominated by chocalate and roast coffee. Smooth aftertaste. I had this brew with a cigar and it complimented the cigar very well. A sublte smokiness added by the cigar made this a much better brew. I rated it on its own merits, though. With the cigar it goes over a 4.0 easily. Overall I really enjoyed this brew and would drink again with a cigar anytime.

Thanks for the trade AND the Secret Santa. Nice and typical imperial stout. Aroma was decent. Dark chocolate and coffee. Pour was a flat deep dark brown/near black with no head or bubbles. Taste was somewhat disappointing. Thin and oily mix of chocolate and coffee with not much aftertaste. Decent carbonation.

pours medium viscosity almost black burnt sienna color with a frothy orange tinged brown head which leaves a bit of drippy lacing behind. the aroma is strongly of malted chocolate powder along with some cream, wood, dark dried fruit and molasses. the palate is nice and dry but the flavor lacks anything to make it special... charred wood, chocolate, light fruitiness and an ashy acidic finish which carries into the aftertaste where coffee finally joins in. light aspirin burn is left in the back of the throat. medium body with soft carbonation. acidity and bitterness make it drink lighter

[1369-20080517] 22floz bottle. Roast malt aroma has lots of coffee and dark roasty stuff. Dark brown body with a quick creamy yellow tan head. Bitter dry roast flavour is like drinking cooled strong black coffee. Full body is dry. Great imperial.

Overheard: "Cats and dogs are just so different to me..." "Well, they are different species."

On draft at the Full Sail Brewery in Hood River, OR. Nice 4 oz sample. Very good stout with chocloate, malt, and caramel flavors clear. Nice strength as well.

Bomber from Liquid Solutions. Opaque brown/balck color with an ephemeral tan head. Nice aromas of chocolate, dark roasted malt and slight coffee. Flavor starts with a light sour note (citrus hop?), dusty dark roasted malt, and a deal of bitter. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Finish is dark bitter malt. Harsher than some. Good to drink.
