Aug 29, 2003 Very black with a big dark brown head. Aroma of roast and chocolate. Very smooth, thick and creamy. Flavor is very malty and roasted with plenty of hops on the finish.

Jul 15, 2007 This tastes like every other good imperial stout. What’s there to say? Chocolate, coffee, caramel, blah blah blah. They’re all good but they’re all almost the same. You’d have to be a pretty shitty brewer not to get a good rating for an imperial stout, unless (in the case of A le Coq) you try to do something different.

Woody aroma with tones of fish and amine.

Rocking bitter finish.

Dark jet-black color, has a great tightly bubbled, brown head that leaves a nice lacing in the glass. Roasted chocolate, coffee and dark fruit aromas, sweet fruity plum-chocolate and coffee flavors. Nice burnt bitter-sweet finish. Medium-full body with creamy and smooth, oily mouthfeel, alcohol somewhat shows as it warms, beautiful.

Nov 17, 2003 An excellent effort from a brewery that I haven't been knocked out by previously. But this is a good stout. It is not too heavy on the roasty/smoky stuff, and has a sweet undertone that is pleasing. Very creamy mouthfeel, but not sticky or cloying. Looks great in a dimple mug too. Not one of the Imperial Stout superstars on Ratebeer, but it is a damn good brew.

Apr 11, 2004 Updated: Jun 3, 200422 oz bottle 2004 yeti-pours jet black with a nice brown head-excellent! fantastic aroma like a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie. flavrors show huge roasted and chocolate notes with some hops in the finish. This beer is excellent! Ok, im going on a rant here. This beer is very under-rated IMO. Tons of chocolate notes that meld with caramel and toffee to create the taste of a milky way candy bar. For me, this is a top 10 imperial stout! Very under-rated. This will age very nicely and cant wait to see how it turns out.
22 oz bottle 2003-pours almost pitch black with a minimal tan head. nice looking brew. robust flavors of coffee and chocolate. no alcohol detected. well balanced and solid. I need to get more of this stuff. thanks to whaleman for sharing this fine CO brew

Dec 9, 2003 Bottle. Solid black color with a dark brown head. A complex aroma with chocolate and toffee that is soon overtaken by dark fruits as the beer warms. A deep rich flavor with a full body that bathes the palate and leaves a lingering licorice and fruity finish. Quite a treat. Thanks to hopsrus for the trade.
