Capones...Black hue with brown creamy lasting head, decent lacing. Drank at close to perfect 50 degree f temp as suggested...Chocolaty roasted smell tang of prune, full flavor, light carbonation, burnt smell and milk chocolate taste goiing down, not thick but heavy...Good for dessert.

Aug 23, 2008 Stumbled upon this on my last trip to Cyclone liquors and figured I"d give it a try. Usually not a big fan of stouts but this one was really enjoyable. Taste of coffee with dried plums and currant on the palate. Finish is a bloom of oaky and hazy flavors that’s a little sharp on the back of the palate but not too big. Pours black with a dark amber head. Great beer.

Aug 18, 2008 really good imperial. pours dark black with minimal head which dissipates quickly. very nice aroma, with a winey characteristic that reminds me slightly of black and black hole (which are 2 of my favs) The taste didn’t disappoint. Coffee and chocolate in the taste. Not as hoppy as other imperials. Slightly sweeter which I really enjoyed. Low carbonation. Really good brew

Aug 16, 2008 50cl bottle from Vinmonopolet. Batch 264. It poured a dark black colour with a big light-brown creamy head that settles down very slowly in the glass. The aroma smells of coffee, dark chocolate, licorice, malts and alcohol. The flavour is spicy and bitter and tastes of dark roasted coffee and malts, mocca and alcohol. It has a long, lingering aftertaste.
