Mar 6, 2002 Very roasty, thick, a tad musty like old books, dull dampened hop notes on the back, complex and fun. Like a double of the Luck O The Irish. Would like to spend more time with this.

Quite full-bodied, hard roasted malt and chocolate accents. Malt bitter finish with some alcohol present. Good and not overly burned Impy. 120709

May 12, 2007 Had the small glass of this and really enjoyed it. Jet black and thin tan head that laced the glass beautifully. Coffee comes thru loud and clear. Reminds me of Dark Lord...not as good, but at least you can get it! The don’t always have this one on tap, but is worth it if there.

Aug 16, 2005 This black beer poured with a nice tan head, eliciting a pleasant chocolate aroma. There is a stong taste of treacle that serves to mask the high alcohol content. This was a very tasty brew.

Jun 25, 2006 On tap in Oakland. Very dark black, creamy beer with cocoa and coffee flavors. Smooth and not strong alcohol. Not the most complex of the type I’ve had but very tasty, a great intro to the style for my wife. Very nice -- I wish I could have this more often.
