Feb 2, 2008 Draught @ the brew pub. Pours black with a thick light tan head. The aroma is roasted malts, coffee, and chocolate. The flavor is again heavy on the roasted malt side, but mixes in some nice dark chocolate, coffee, and a hint of dark fruits. Medium/full bodied and very smooth drinking. This is one I would like to see them bottle.

Aug 2, 2007 On tap at the brewery. Nice big stout, roasty, sweet, espresso. Cream in there with a touch of bitterness on the finish. I think the finish was lacking and wasn’t as complex as I would have hoped. But a good beer and worth a try.

Jul 30, 2007 Dark with a frothy vanilla head. Lots of rich moderatly roasted malts, tones of chocolate, mildly sweet, not as overpoweringly hopped and full of espresso like most imperial stouts seem to be, but a little lacking in depth.

Jul 23, 2007 Draft sample at brewpub. Poured a black color with an average creamy brown head that mostly lasted and produced good lacing. Heavy roasted malt and coffee aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture. Good complex roasted flavor with a medium roasted bittersweet finish of long duration. Good complex brew.

Jul 7, 2007 Very nice imperial stout style. Dark black / red color, tiny / no head. Creamy, alcohol barely comes through, though it’s QUITE present. Roasted malts, sour background, complex.
