Mar 8, 2007 Bottle thanks to DrBayern! Pours a dark black color with a nice tan head on top. Aroma is roasted malts, chocolate, toffee, caramel, and coffee. Flavor is roasted malts and coffee, hints of sweet chocolate come in as well. The flavor is primarily roasty with sweetness coming in too. A very smooth imperial stout with not much of a sign of alcohol or syrupy thickness. I would like to drink this during a blackout!

Mar 7, 2007 Pours a deep black color, and hints of lacing. Has hints of roasted malts and coffee. You can sense some chocalate. Very smooth drinking for a full bodied beer.

Mar 5, 2007 Bottle best before 7-03-07. Purchased at Giant Eagle in Mentor, OH. Was I behind you at the checkout? Small world!
This stout was fantastic. SO perfectly balanced I’m not certain of the right words. I would say a little more smokey than roasty, but it was a sweeter smokey than usual. It can go down so fast. The definition of will power is drinking this one slowly.

Mar 4, 2007 Bottle best before 7-03-07. Purchased at Giant Eagle in Mentor, OH. Pours black with huge brown head, nice lacing. Aroma of dark roast and coffee. Nice medium full texture, with some smooth creaminess. Lots of burnt flavor, with some chocolate and dark roast coffee in the background. Bitter finish with notes of vanilla, and a slight fizziness going down. Not bad. Lots of flavor without being thick or syrupy.

Mar 3, 2007 12oz. bottle from Premier Gourmet. The beer poured a dark black and had a soft tan head. The stout’s aroma is dominated by roasted malts with just a hint of vanilla. The beer has a very smooth texture and the taste is very chocolatey with some charred espresso in the background. Goes down incredibly easy.

Mar 3, 2007 12 ounce bottle form bgburdman. Pours chocolatey brown and forms and inky black mass in the snifter. An aggressive pour resulted in barely enough fizzy light brown head to even comment about. Fairly complex aroma. The typical roast, char, and dark chocolate are present. I can also find some burnt tobacco, smokey character. Tastes sort of like my morning mochaccino, with a touch of milk. There some smokey flavors as well. They come off more on the BBQ side. Mostly balanced over the palate. Pretty good beer.

Feb 26, 2007 No head on this very dark brown pour. A sweet oak flavor among the bourbon flavor.

Feb 25, 2007 (bottle - 12 oz) Dark black pour with a thick tan head. Aroma is very dark and roasty with some chocolate and lots of burnt coffee malts. Flavor begins with a ton of roasted malts, a middle of chocolate and some light hops and a very bitter and malty finish. Chewy and thick bodied. One hell of a stout.
