Dec 14, 2009 (Can, Akkurat, Stockholm) Pitch black colour with brief, frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with espresso, ashes, tar and cocoa. Malty, roasted taste with notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, black coffee, ashes and some tar. Generous cocoa bitterness in a long finish. Full body, slightly oily mouthfeel, fairly dry. Alcohol fairly well hidden. Well, it’s bold, full bodied, hoppy, strong and ... it’s canned! But in some way it’s very well balanced and quite easy to drink. Very tasty and quite brilliant!

Dec 14, 2009 Pours a jet black color out of the can with a bold, creamy brown head. Aroma is of coffee, oatmeal, chocolate and molasses. Taste features a prominent oatmeal taste, with bitterness coming from the coffee and some hops. With a little bit of sweetness coming from the chocolate and molasses. Rich, hearty, mouthfeel.

Dec 13, 2009 12 oz can. Pours black with a dense, foamy tan head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, vanilla and burnt sugar. Flavor is bittersweet chocolate, roasted malt and a very light alcohol taste. Full body with mild carbonation and a thick, creamy mouth feel similar to chocolate milk. Best beer I’ve ever had out of a can, a very solid Imp Stout with great aroma and flavor, I really like the mouth feel in this one.

Dec 13, 2009 12 oz. can from South Bay Drugs. Pours opaque black with a small brown head that heaves a nice film on the top the entire time. Aroma of chocolate, raisins, roasted malts, coffee, hops, smoked meats, and berries. Flavor of chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, bitter hops, dark fruit, and alcohol. This has a lot of nice flavors but doesn’t do much to mask the booze. Full bodied, slick, and oily. Rich, bitter, and roasty- and fortunately not too roasty or smoky. Nice beer.
