Nov 23, 2009 Bottle. I like the joker. Not much of a head on the pour, but the aroma is killer -- rich and promising a full-flavored beer. It doesn’t disappoint -- solidly assembled cacophony of rich roasty flavors here, dark fruit, and chocolate mousse. Delish! (#3752, 11/23/2009)

Nov 18, 2009 bottle, pours black with a thin to medium dark tan head. Strong roasty coffee and chocolate ice cream aromas. Nice mouthfeel, some oats seem to be adding a nice creamyness and the low carbonation helps as well. Lots of chocolate again, very sweet but not overly, some vanilla bean and a little expresso. Very enjoyable, and a complete suprise!

Nov 17, 2009 bomber from greens in atlanta. black pour with a sturdy looking tan head that actually isn’t -- disappears quick like, leaving a ring and some soapy lacing. roasted malt and chocolate aroma with dark fruits and a musty vibe to it. first thing noticed in the taste is the alcohol -- not necessarily in an unpleasant way, but front and center for sure. figs, toasted brown sugar and cherry tastes work through to an astringent bitter finish. kinda similar to storm king, but not quite as balanced. overall, good sipper - warms you right up.

Nov 15, 2009 11th July 2008. No too thick for an Impy Stout. Smooth palate. Mellow coffee that is not bitter. Rich malt that is a little creamy. Also a rich fruitiness. Plumbs and Port. A real tasty treat.

Nov 7, 2009 Bottle. Black pour with a short, dense, brown head. Aroma is rife with licorice, roasted malt, coffee, molasses and vanilla. Taste is strong molasses, lighter licorice, roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate, alcohol, and dark fruit. Body is thick and rich with a dense, creamy carbonation. Ends with more roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, molasses, vanilla, licorice, and alcohol. Very rich but still very tasty!
