Holy Mackerel Mack in Black

Brewed by Florida Beer Company
Style: Imperial Stout
Melbourne, Florida USA

12-oz. bottle received via trade with dchmela. Pours clear rubied black with a small, fizzy, light brown head, mostly diminishing with spare lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (molasses, chocolate, burnt), light hops (herbs), average yeast (leather) with notes of tar, charcoal, soy sauce, licorice, and pomegranate. Full bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation, and a bitter finish. Average duration, light sweetness and acidity, moderate bitterness.

Bottle courtesy of juiceisloose. Pours black with a thin off white head. Smells of chocolate malt, booze, some molasses, hints of spice. Tastes of caramel, molasses, a touch of pomegranate, boozy. Decent.

Pours a black color with hardly any head at all. Aroma is of black patent malts, a bit of roastiness, and some fruit. Flavor is a weak watery roasted flavor with that hint of pomegranite in there. This is a perfect example of ho not very good beers get good ratings because they are a stout.

Bottle from Solan. Black and opague. Roast, licorice and a hint of pomegranate in the aroma. Sweetish, fruity, roasty, salty flavor with licorice. Medium to full bodied, smooth beer.

Bottle in trade from daknole, thanks! Consumption from a shaker- poured non transparent heavily used motor oil from a tractor trailer black, upper end low carbonation of tiny bubbles. Aroma of coffee, dark bakers chocolate, dark toasted wheat bread, and dark fruit. Hits the mouth with a wide body, malt is roasted heavily just from the first taste, hard coffee taste, mild sweetness on the end. A little out of balance, but still good and drinkable.

pitch black with a small brown head. Aroma is roasted coffe beans, dark chocolate, some tiny hints of pepper. Taste has lively carbonation, some stickyness, small hint of the pomegranate juice in the finish. Overall a soldi stout. thanks to beastifan2k

Bottle, thanks daknole! Pours opaque blackish brown with a scant and fading tan head. Aroma of coffee, blackberries, and a touch of chocolate. Creamy medium body and active carbonation. Lightly sweet taste of coffee, biscuit. Dry espresso finish that is a bit tart. Pretty nice, but I would enjoy it more if it wasn’t over-carbonated.
