smells like roasted malt, nutty, a little bit boozy. totally opaque, looks like liquid chocolate when it pours. doesn’t really remind me of a stout, tastes more like a stout FLAVORED beer. Doesn’t really taste like chocolate (more like baking cocoa), but it is spicy and bitter. No sweetness at all. Feels dusty and chalky in my mouth, just like cocoa. Fairly good.

Déhusté avec Agaguk et Pyrozoid. Apparence noir pénombre, belle mousse brune collante. Aromes de d’avoine intense, melasse, licorice, choco-noisette, alcohol et un peu de vanille. Bonne equilibre entre le sucré et l’amertume, sensation d’alcool, finition vélouté et crémeuse. Gout de chocolat, vanille bourbon, mout d’avoine et de malt chocolat. Une de bonne imperial stout que j’ai bu dernierement.

Bouteille de 600 ml. dégusté avec french tickler et Agaguk. Bière de couleur noir avec un mince collet brun très collant. Odeur de chocolat, alcool, nutella, crème, cendré, cerises noires, café et un peu le caramel. Saveur d’alcool, malt brulé, un peu cendré.

(22 oz. bottle (labelled "July 2008") from Kappy’s, cellared for 7 mos. after purchase) Smooth, hot, bitter and chocolatey...Pours thick and inky-looking. Very, very dark brown with a thin purplish-brown head that recedes mostly to edges. Aroma of very dark chocolate, coffee, a bit of molasses and light char. Very fine sheets of lacing melt away quickly. Mouthfeel is quite full, silky smooth and turns sticky in the finish. Flavor of big dark chocolate over some coffee roast and then whoa! a big dose of alcohol comes in right in the middle. The alcohol is strange and almost medicinal. Leaves quite a burn. Big chocolate and coffee. Medium-heavy bitterness rides overtop and through into the finish and aftertaste. Finishes pretty grassy. Very nice mouthfeel and appearance but the alcohol is just too detracting, as is the grassiness.

Looks amazingly great in a glass, dark as the pits of hell, huge thick tan head. the beer coats the glass like used motor oil as you swirl it around. The nose is sweet, floral and tones of alcohol. taste is bitter chocolate with a creamy background. great from start to finish.
