Bottle. Pours black with an inch of tan head. Not much of aroma- light roastiness. Coffee and dark chocolate in the mouth- a bit thin... Nothing special.

Dec 17, 2009 Pours a very dark brown color with a big, foamy, tan head and thick lacing. Smells immediately like chocolate pudding followed by strong notes of coffee, dry roasted nuts, and black patent malt. Medium bodied, dry with a solid bitterness and a thoughtful aftertaste. Tangy chocolate flavor mixed with dark fruits and plenty of dry roast. Sugary cocoa and a firm green hop flavor round out this tasty stout. Big props to bluesandbarbq for sending this my way, I enjoyed every drop of it.

Dec 6, 2009 Bottle at Spanky’s in Chapel Hill. Nice aroma of coffee/mocha, malts, and some nuts (couldn’t identify). Taste was about the same but with a little hop touch. Dry finish with little left on the palate worth mentioning. Still enjoyable.

Dec 5, 2009 Pours a thick black with a grey head. It has a mild, burnt aroma. This beer tastes of dark, burnt malt with only a slight bit of bitter hops.

Nov 21, 2009 This is definitely a roasted malt bomb. It assaults the senses, but in all the ways the name implies. This one is definitely not messing around. Tons of chocolate and coffee in the aroma and taste as well. Hops are present, but play a supporting role as they should. This beer envelops the palate with its oily, full bodied, bittersweet goodness. The finish is a bit dry and accompanied by lots of roasted malt and bitterness. An awesome brew.

Nov 19, 2009 12 ounce bottle thanks to Brent, man I loved the imperial version of this so much. Pours a deep brown color with a medium beige head. The aroma is coffee, roasted malts, nutty. The flavor is dry, roasted coffee and malts, a light fruity goodness comes through, and suggests just how good the imperial version will be. Still, very nice.
