May 29, 2008 Near black colored with red hints. Medium sized beige head. Strong roasted aroma with vanilla note, berries, creamy chocolate and fine hops also present, soft aroma which reminds me lot about oak-aged brother of this. Medium to full bodied, smooth and creamy palate. Flavor is also rich with roastiness and chocolaty-caramelly tone in start, aftertaste turns to hopped with sweet chocolate still. Finely balanced and rather similar to OA-version.

May 25, 2008 Pours a dark black with a thin tan head. Nice aroma of chocolate, and actually a lot of hops. For an Imperial Stout the hops actually really stand out. Nice full body. A really good Imperial Stout. Worth a try.

May 20, 2008 Che quando la versi sembra un tazzone di caffè; complessa, appiccicosa e amara. Vale la pena. Bottiglia da 37.5cl comprata da ciobì.

May 17, 2008 Pours a deep black with a nice mocha head that subsides fairly rapidly. Good lacing. Nose is malt, coffee and chocolate. These are reprised in the taste. Chocolate is bitter; a nice touch.Outstanding mouthfeel - full-bodied but not syrupy. It massages the tongue and palate. Aftertaste lingers, accentuating the hops. Well done.

May 14, 2008 Pours a nice dark brown/black with a tan head. Let this one warm up a bit before making your final judgement. Nice flavor or coffee and chocolate malts. Not much of an alcohol aftertaste. I want more.
