Smuttynose Imperial Stout

@ blind tasting - Near black body, light beige head; Very fruity coffee, intense dark caramel aromas; Super soft texture, sweet and bitter, a bit to hoppy be to be near balanced; Long very bitter finish, chocolate aromas but even more pine hop.

This beer is a very flavorful and dark beer. If you truly like a dark stout, this is a way to go.

An amazing beer. Chocolate/coffee aroma and flavor. Black color with brown head. One of the best beers I’ve had.

Bottle. [#30 Blind tasting session @ Sk8viking] Spare light brown head that mostly diminished. Spare lacework. Black color. Aroma has a lot going on with notes of chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, floral notes as well. Light alcoholic sniff, prune, date, licorice and light berries feel over the palate. Full bodied with a light alcoholic and dry texture with a soft carbonation. Moderated bitter and sweet flavor. Bitter finish. 07-09-2007

Pours a dark, opaque black into the snifter with a large, sticky tan head and thicky, sticky lacing. A beautiful chocolate and coffee scent engulf the nose and excite the palate. A nice malt/hop balance for an Imperial Stout with hints of coffee, dates, chocolate cake and roasted nuts. There is a sticky, clingy mouthfeel and a perfect finish. This is an excellent, very complex beer.

Pours an opaque black color with a slight head. Aroma is malty, roasted malts, and chocolate. Flavor is malty, roasty, grainy, and some chocolate.
