Apr 19, 2008 Bottle. Pours like black coffee with small brown head that seems to last for quite a while. Aroma is of chocolate and of bitter hops. Flavor starts out rich from the very beginning and stays rich. It is a pleasant mixture of hops, coffee, and chocolate that changes nuance with time. Finish is of hops and very long lasting. Overall, a very drinkable and full bodied brew.

Apr 19, 2008 Bottle. Aroma started off as alcoholic raisin (overwhelmingly) with a nice hop background, but as time went on, chocolate popped up, and as more time went on coffee popped up, as both took their appropriate spots without making much of a fuss. Flavor was much more balanced from the beginning, with (non-alcoholic) raisin, prune, maybe even cherry, chocolate, tons of roasted malt, and still a nice hop background that let the malt do the talking but played its role nicely. Also a very drinkable imperial stout I found. Great great stuff.

Apr 19, 2008 Bottle (probably was sitting around for awhile). Pours dark black with a beautiful thick light brown head. Aroma of chocolate, hops. I loved the hop profile of this beer! Flavor of hops, roasted malt. Mouthfeel was a little less rich and dense compared to the Oaked Yeti. Yum!

Apr 19, 2008 Dark black......opaque. Thick, creamy head. Malty aroma, with a hint of sweetness. Strong roasted malt flavors up front......pretty smooth mouthfeel, with only a faint crispness. Complex hop notes mixed with a bold malt flavor in the back......long, somewhat dry finish.

Soft to average carbonation. Hoppy, bitter, chocolate, dry finish.

Apr 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours black with dark brown head. Aroma is roasty and smokey. I found this beer to be a bit one dimensional and a bit thin/watery. I drank this after I had an expedition stout and it just seemed like a much less substantial beer. It’s good,but I wasn’t impressed.
