Commercial Description:
Jolly Roger himself smoked the malt for this Imperial Stout. This is a massive stout with a huge roasted maltiness and complex smoky, chocolate flavors coming through strong thanks to the gentle handpump and correct cellar temperature.

Bottled, thanks kmweaver(?) - sorry my beer stash is messed up... Very black, opaque, small pale brown head. Aroma of chocolate and licorice. Sweet, dense and fruity with full body and thick viscous mouthfeel. Chewy and solid with tar and licorice, molasses and tobacco. Salty tarry finish. All powerful and very correct.

Bottle. Very dark, allmost black colour with a little head. Aroma of dark chocolate, alcohol, sugar and vanilla. Smooth flavour of chocolate, roastedness and very much noteable of alcohol.

3rd Annual Woodshop Tasting, 3/1/08. Thanks Chris! I was pretty into the flavor - smokey malts, rich dark chocolate, bitter hops . . . palate was nice too. Aroma was pretty nonexistent though when faced up with the flavors. Pretty good.

Bottled, sampled at cquiroga’s 3rd Annual Woodshop Tasting, 3/1/08. Deep brown color with lighter edges and thin brown rings. Some carbonation and an aroma of charred wood and lots of coffee / espresso. Similar coffee aroma with blackened bread and a bit of an acidic finish. Average bitterness with a medium body that finishes with a lot of smoke. Not bad.
