On tap at European Beerfestival. Pours black with a yellowish head and some lacings. Sweet and dry. Aromas of chocolate malts and dark fruits with hints of honey and ash. Soft carbonation. Sticky mouthfeel. Long sweet finish.

Deep black of color with very nice brown head. An aroma of leather, coffee, alcohol and chocolate. A oily flavor with lots of bitter notes, coffee and sweets and alcohol notes. A year or two for storage and i think it would be great.

Bottle at Nnudds tasting. We finished the 22 Impy stout tasting with this mother and it really overpowered everything. Not only to the good side but this is a power house! It pours completely black with dark brown head. Lots of tar, tobacco, overripe fruit and paint in aroma. Soft mouthfeel but you hardly recognise it as the flavour explodes in your mouth with chocolate, bitter hops, tar and burnt malts. It has a long alcoholic finish. Overall its too much of it all to be honest but its truely amazing how many tasting notes you can get out of this beer. Im looking forward to try it again in a year or so when it must be more tempered.

Bottle: Dark brown pour with a thin brown head. Dark fruit, roast, chocolate, and smoke in the aroma. Hints of the ABV already. Tastes sweet and fruity into a heavier roast and coffee note. The ABV shows, but not too bad. Molasses and light smoke too. I would like to try this aged 3-4 years... Thanks BuckeyeBoy.

Pours a black color with a brown head. Aroma is molasses, brown sugar, chocolate, roast, a hint of plum, and alcohol. Flavor is malty, caramel, roast, raisins, plum, and a bitter alcohol finish.

Bottle Pours out ink black topped with a small brown head. Aroma of tons of dark roast and some sweetness (pit fruit and molassses). Tast was of smoke, molasses and some pit fruit. Still pretty hot maybe stash it away for a while to help mellow.
