Pour black with a thin brown head. Toasty roasted aroma with some lactic sourness. Quite tart in flavor with mild cocoa. Rather thin in body. Low hop flavor and bitterness. Not my favorite.

Midnight black with ruby tinges and a thin tan head that’s gone. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, light soy sauce, alcohol, semi-sweet malt and mild smoke. Taste of roasted sweet malt, smoked sweet meat, alcohol, molasses and a weird off flavor. Finishes up with an artificial sweetness and some warming.

Pours black with an inch of head. Coffee, malt, molasses and chocolate inn the nose. Thick in the mouth with some chocolate, malt, dark fruit. Nice.

From Daknole. Pours black with a reddish hint, no head to speak of. The aroma is caramel toffee coffee, with a hint of sweetness; also some figs, honey a touch of licorice. The taste is some bitter, some burnt/smokey, a little alcohol but very tasty.

16th June 2008. Not by any means watery but not as thick as a lot of Impy Stouts. Lots of mildy toasted malt. Molasses and subtle tones of chocolate and coffee. No real bitterness. Well joined up.

Enjoyed via draft in a whiskey snifter. The beer pours an opaque jet black with a deep tan head. Carbonation is medium-low, perhaps two volumes. The aroma is of dark chocolate, some high crystals, and a slight alcoholic tinge. The palate replicates these flavors, along with some milk chocolate, a bit of caramel, and unfortunately, a tidal wave of alcohol on the back end. The latter items takes away from the rest of the beer’s character, and evidences the need for longer aging. Overall, this is easily the best Duck Rabbit beer I’ve tried.

Black as night with a very dark head. Molasses, coffee, roasted malts, some cocoa as well as chocolate in the aroma. Thick, syrupy body. Flavor is rather molasses filled. Also full of chocolate, roasted malts, some coffee, dark fruits and light licorice. Very nice impy.
