Apr 21, 2005 This is everything I’d expect from an Imperial stout and more. Very very smooth beer can brighten a cold winter evening. I’d given it a 20, but I’m reserving that score until I try a bottle of the oak aged I’ve been saving.

Nov 2, 2005 Updated: Jun 13, 2008smellls of sweet roasted malts, carmel, and a hint of citrusy hops. syrupy texture and black in color with a dark brown orange head. oily palate. i definitly notice the hops underneath the roasted chocolate malts. tastes of chocolate covered oranges. similar to a rogue stout with the hop content. unique and enjoyable. great find.--11/2/05-- re-rate- well, it’s been a long time since i’ve had this one, so i decided to re-rate. pours completely black with a large creamy whipped dark brown head. aroma of dark chocolate, milk chocolate, sugared coffee, espresso, mocha. full bodied and creamy. flavors like the aroma with notes of orange and pine. this still rocks just as hard.

Jan 12, 2007 BOOM! This is a killer Imperial Stout. Pours deep black with a minimal tan head. Thick and creamy with hints of burnt cocoa and espresso. 9.5% abv is hidden with ease. A perfectly balanced Imperial Stout!

Jun 13, 2009 Aroma of this beer is pure delight - thick and oily, strongly of fine coffee with hints of molasses, miso and unsweetened chocolate. It pours a deep, rich, warm, opaque sable with a very thick and fairly persistent tan head. Flavor does not disappoint - it is strongly chocolaty with coffee and malty tones and hints of toffee plus a bit of a hoppy bitter bite. Texture is thick and smooth, and fairly tingly so you know that you’re drinking a fine beer. Almost perfection, this one!

Oct 3, 2006 Black pour with a dense tan head that lasts and lasts. Rich coffee, chocolate, and molasses aroma with a pronounced citrus hop note. Big roasted malts up front, strong flavor of brown sugar and a pronounced roasted hop finish. Thick full creamy mouthfeel. This just might be one of my new favorites. Good stuff!

May 10, 2008 A very very good imperial stout that is wonderfully smoky and dirty tasting. Poured a thick black with a frothy huge head but that’s because I just dumped the beer in there.

Sep 11, 2006 Black as coal. Aroma is sweet. Roasted malt flavors are big in this one and the hops really close in on the finish. Outstanding brew and, for the record, two of the large bottles is absolutely enough unless you plan on sleeping in the next day!

Jan 16, 2008 A nice dark colour. Smooth yet darke with a touch of sweetness. Espresso-esque malty, chocolate-like
