This beer is amazing. The sweet smell of chocolate with the soft creaminess of oatmeal stout combined with a hint of chocolate. This beer is like an orgasm in a bottle for stout lovers. Seek this out and drink it. Now! Just quit reading, get offline, and go to the beer store.

Bottle. Pours a deep black, with a thin brown head. Aroma of warm alcohol and sweet chocolate malts. The flavor is bitter dark chocolate and a hint of coffee, with roasted malt character, and an earthy aftertaste. The alcohol is quite apparent, particularly in the aftertaste. Surprisingly sweet. Nice creamy mouthfeel. A unique and excellent imperial stout, one of the best that I’ve had.

Poured from bomber like used motor oil with a tan head. Aroma was roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor was very smooth roasted malt and dark chocolates a coffee bitterness finished off with an alcohol warming.

Draft@ Brouwers. Black with a tan head. Cocoa powder and roasted malt aromas. Full body. Strong flavor is chocolate, coffee, with a harsh charred oatmeal flavor, which reminded me of a burnt oatmeal / peanut butter cookie. Astringent alcohol bite to finish. Is this better in a bottle?
