Jun 19, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a jet-black body with a finger-thick mocha head. Roasty aroma with lots of coffee (obviously), vanilla beans, dark chocolate and hints of caramel. Goes down creamy and smooth as silk, but a tad thin. Starts off pretty sweet. Lots of caramel and vanilla upfront. Finishes with a roasty coffee bitterness that lingers. Some warming alcohol throughout.

Jun 18, 2008 22 ounce bottle, pour is pitch black with a cream head. Aroma is straight malt and coffee. The taste is dominated by malt but that couples well with the coffee. Blue Mountain Coffee is some of the best coffee I have ever had and it stands to reason that a beer brewed with this coffee is solid. Well the Jah-Va lives up to it’s billing it is a coffee flavored stout with the best. Would buy again

Jun 16, 2008 This was a really good IMPY, although the label and description is off just a touch. There is zero coffee flavor in this at all, NONE, zip. notta. Minus that problem, this was a very BIG and toasted roasted impy stout. lots of complexity with fruit choclate caramel and heavy roast. I really liked it, but there is NO coffee in it!

Jun 16, 2008 Tasted at Ezra’s Imp Stout tasting--Poured a dark black-brown body with a fluffy tan head. This was all about darkness, creaminess and jah-va!!! Chewy, malty, toffee, creamy chocolate. I have to reiterate! Yum! Bitter hops and acidic coffee finish. More coffee than necessary, but that’s the point right?

Jun 15, 2008 Thick black pour.Nutty colored head. Roasty aroma, first mouthfeel is malty/hoppy followed by cofee. Leaves a big aftertaste of coffee/mocha. The taste of coffee is hidden in part because of the high volume 12ABV.
Would def. try more of this great imperial stout.

Jun 15, 2008 Bottle courtesy Gillard. Pours black with a one finger tan head that leaves good lacing. Heavy aroma of coffee roasted malt, and bitter chocolate. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium full mouthfeel with a moderate amount of bitterness and very smooth alcohol. Damn good.

Jun 11, 2008 Dark brown with a fleeting tan head. Big roasted nut and grain aroma. Smooth medium body. Fairly dry flavors of rich, roasted malts and nuts mirrors the aroma. Has a nice mocha bitter sweetness to finish. Nice

Jun 8, 2008 Really nice beer. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma of roasted coffee and booze. Has a strong taste of coffee and booze with a hint of vanilla. Very little carbonation to this one, nice bitter finish.
