Feb 17, 2009 Draught, Pensacola
Close to black with a thin head. Chewy molasses and dark fruit aroma. Soft, creamy, with lots of vanilla and coconut sweetness. Only slightly fruity. The alcohol shows only in a slight, late dryness.

Dec 10, 2008 Draft in Pensacola. Pour is this and black and served with no head. An aggressive swirl did not create much head either. The overwhelming character here is chocolate syrup with some Quik stired into it. Very oily with a bit of grit. Sticky. Not bad. Actually, better than I expected.

Dec 16, 2007 On tap at the 2007 GABF: Pours a transparent dark amber mahogany with a thin ring of tan head. Aroma of some piny, earthy hops, dark chocolate and caramel malt. Body is fairly sweet and full with some big bittering earthy hops and warming alcohol toward the finish. An ok imperial stout, but could be a little darker, roastier and more complex.
