May 29, 2009 On tap at the Flying Saucer in Kansas City. This pours a deep black with a tiny espresso swirl style head. The aroma is a little cardboardy with some coffee and plenty of whisky. The flavor is the kicker here immediately there was this chocolate milk like flavor that slowly fades to an enormous bourbon flavor with plenty of oaky tones and a deep roasted character, a very nice tasting beer. here. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

May 24, 2009 750ml 2008 bottle, drank in May 2009. Opaque brown-black color. Minimal, lacy around the edges, head. The aroma is smooth and chocolaty, not unlike a full bodied porter, a hint of coffee. The taste is warm, full, and bitter sweet. Excellently rounded out, these is some bourbon in the syrupy smoothness, but it doesnt dominate the flavor profile. Somewhat bitter cocoa dry, there is some accompanying vanilla caramel. Awesome beer.

May 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours black with a one finger tan head that left spotty lacing. Aroma of bourbon, chocolate, coffee, vanilla and has a hint of caramel. Taste was silky smooth with soft carbonation with flavors of oaky bourbon, chocolate, dark roasted coffee, vanilla and wood with a full body and has a nice warming finish. Excellent imp stout.

May 16, 2009 Bottled (thanks for sharing jarikumpul!). Dark brown to pitch black colour, small brown head. Aroma is bigtime roasted malts, liquorice, chocolate and also mild notes of coffee. Flavour is quite the same with the liquorice coming real strongly. Also Alcohol gives a nice warming touch to complete the whole.

May 2, 2009 Pours deep mahogany with a small beige head. Strong lactic aroma with notes of chocolate, slight coffee, and just a hint of whiskey. Flavor has strong mocha notes, and lots of lactic sugar upfront. Definite but subtle oak and whiskey along with strong molasses mid-palate and a bit of sweet caramel. Full bodied and creamy mouthfeel, with a bit of chalkiness late in the finish.
