Apr 28, 2009 Bottled, 330 ml, pasteurised. Black as yer ’at with cream collar. Tongue coating sweetness interlaced with a burnt, roasted malt and fruit and then a sweet yeasty alcohol. rich and smooth, some caramel notes giving extra depth, port like sherry notes too. Not perhaps as complex as I am making out here, but certainly a fine beer.

Apr 23, 2009 12oz bottle poured into tulip glass. Pours dark black w/a minimal creamy white head. Tastes immediately sweet and finishes with a bitter bite laced w/alcohol. Aroma has coffee overtones with earthy body like vinegar. A sweet and bitter full body Imp Stout which I would recommend to all to try.

Apr 17, 2009 Pours black with a fizzy bubbly brown head that dissipates quickly, no lacing. Roasted malt, smoke, hops and coffee in the aroma. Flavour is much the same, plus some bitter chocolate. Pretty straightforward. Easy drinkable. Could be a bit thicker and smoother.

Apr 15, 2009 Looks almost like an imperial stout with an almost pitch black color. aroma is of roasted coffee and slight smokiness. flavor is of coffee chocolate and smoke. lots of smoke actually. seems a bit too weak in alcohol and flavor to be called an imperial stout. also seems too high in carbonation. however, it is a great beer.

Apr 14, 2009 Pours a deep pitch black with a nice mocha coloured head. Aroma is very roasty. Coffee, licorice, dark fruits and berries, chocolate, and a hint of smoke are all on the nose. Tastes very smokey. Tuns of coffee on the palate as well, tastes like a French pressed French roast coffee. Just the way I like it. Raisins, plums, currant, licorice, and dark bitter chocolate are present on the palate as well. Mouth feel is appropriate for a imperial stout. Nice bitter coffee finish. Great beer!

Apr 13, 2009 Bottle from Utobeer. Very near black with a beige foamy head. Smooth and slightly creamy. Roasted notes on the nose and then a malty, slightly bready taste with a firm body and a lingering finish. Nice.
