OKay, I guess this is a new beer for them and hopefully this will be revamped or something. It needs some work

So the bartender lady says to me when I order this, "Have you had this imperial stout before?" My reply is, "No what is so bad about it." She replys, "Most people have never had an imperial stout before, most people drink guiness and they dont like this." I reply that I love imperial stouts and I guess how some people can be turned off from them, but I go ahead and give it a shot anyway.



Very dark in color with a very thin actively moving grey head that is short lasting. The nose is very very sweet almost like some kind of sugar is added in. Little bits of malt here and there. The taste is incredibly sweet maybe like it has burboun or something in it but it just isnt that easy to identify. It kind of tastes like stale Coke mixed with some stale diet pepsi. Very strange. When the beer was first off the tap at the very end there was just a bit of coffee. But this sweetness was just too putrid. No hops at all. Anywhere.
