Jun 29, 2008 Pours a black ale with tan-colored head. Aroma is thick roasted malts with coffee undertones. Flavor is light licorice with definite coffee undertones. The sugar flavors have definite ouzo quality. Body is light to medium with light carbonation. Strong beer but lacking anything special in taste.

Jun 29, 2008 Pours black with a nutty head. Aroma is very sweet and sugary (licorice), lightly roasted with a good touch of coffee.
ABV at 7.9% is slightly low for a Russian Imperial Stout. A good beer none the less.

Jun 8, 2008 Brown, almost black with a quickly diminishing tan head. Aroma of peat, molasses, licorice, roasted malts and caramel. Taste of caramel, molasses with a little chocolate and roasted malt character as well. Body is a little over carbonated. It’s okay, not sure I’d have it again though.
