Rich sweet aroma with a really nice coffee smell that I have not encountered before (I am not a coffee drinker though). Taste is very rich - tons of alcohol too. Nicely balanced coffee/malt/alcohol and really really silky and easy to drink. Smoother than the less alcohol breakfast. Easily the best coffee Imperial Stout I have ever had - not even Peche gets the coffee integration this right, and also the most complex yet drinkable imperial stout I have ever tried. My second perfect score. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA

The pour here is onyx with no light through and 2-finger brown head that leaves copious lacing. The aroma here is immense; a medley of dark malt, dark choc, coffee, mild hops, nuts, and molasses. The taste is rich, complex, well balanced, with dark malt and chocoff at the forefront, and slight fruit, molasses, nuts, and oaty, earthy peaty notes throughout. Gets a bit more acidic at the end, but this one is to Impy Stouts what a fine Cuban cigar is to a regular maduro. It has similarities to Beer geek breakfast, but smoothed out and a bit more immense throughout. The alcohol in this is amazingly well hidden, and the greatness that is this beer makes me proud to sample just about anything that comes out of a civet’s ass in the future. Get ya some, and do it today, even if you have to go down to the local ASPCA and grab a civet temporarily. Crosby shoots...he scores! GreatLibations (1454), Last Supper, Arizona, USA
| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Feb 15, 2009 Pours like dark chocolate milk with a tall lasting head thats rest like a pancake for the duration of the session.Highly aromatic smelling like bitter cocoa and roasted coffee beans. Full and viscous with superb carbonation giving this a creamy mouthfeel. Flavors of roasted coffee intertwined with bitter cocoa with only a touch a sugar. This brew is rich and fattening while retaining sublime sense of balance. The finish leaves a lingering chocolate roasted chestnut essence. Excellent brew. Acknud (792), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA

Aroma is overwhelming of dark chocolate and strong coffee.. Chewy in the mouth. I never knew drinking cat shit could be so good! lassem (313), Copenhagen, Denmark

Therefore goes this one out, as R.E.M sang, to the one I love. Full of respect and full of admiration this one gets my first fiver...Its so complex and balanced as hell. Its smooth with a fat creamy palate and a pour that are all black with nice brown fluffy head.... To use the worlds most expensive coffee is such a cheeky and compromiseless thing to do.. To hell with the financial crise. Thanx for a perfect beer. grandgenie (252), gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | May 28, 2009 Commandé avec bieropholie et après une attente de 4 mois j’ai enfin reçu ce petit bijoux. Bouteille de 16,9oz avec une étiquette autour du goulot écris à la main disant ceçi: CO 11126961 et 45-235B-00. Dégusté avec Glandine dans un verre ballon de maudite et dégusté à 4 degré celcius en progression vers une température pièce. Une apparence d’un noire obscure avec une mousse tenace de couleur brune avec un beau collet d’au moin 2 pouces laissant chaque trace sur le verre. Arômes intense et complexe mariant plusieurs subtilités: crême, noisette, vanille, fûmé, chocolat noir, mélasse et de café comme j’ai jamais senti auparavent. Un goût des plus luxueux et équilibré, crémeux avec une bonne amertume. La noisette est dissimulé entre la vanille, le café, la mélasse, le chocolat noir , les truffles et une touche de cerise. La sensation en bouche est indescriptive, du jamais vu !, de la rondeur, du délicat et où es l’alcool ...je la sent sur mes gencives mais elle ne fait pas son pourcentage car je ne la goûte presque pas. Quelle plénitude ! un produit carpe diem......... plutoodie (12), Belgium
