Pours dark black with a light tan head. Smell is roasty, hoppy and big. Taste is dark bitter roasy dry chocolate with a slightly rich body and mild carbonation. Nice hops in flavor too. Pretty good and nicely dark and flavorful.

Sep 21, 2008 22 oz. bottle, pours an opaque, dark brown body with a short-lasting brown head. Aroma of sweet roasted malts, cocoa, and a hint of coffee. Fairly smooth mouthfeel with a light fizziness. Medium to heavy body. Flavors of roasted malts, coffee, and chocolate with a light smoke tone. Bitter cocoa and roasted malt finish. Solid, but not as complex as some of the top imperial stouts.
