| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jul 12, 2008 Bar none, this is the best brew I’ve ever had. This is my third bottle from the 2008 release and every time I open one i can’t believe what I’m drinking. The part that sold me on this is the viscosity/mouthfeel of the beer. It’s unbelievable. Nothing more needs to be said about this beer, its ranking speaks for itself...and yes it’s the real deal. In my book, this is the #1 beer in the world. Woodsman52 (23), , Ohio, USA

Silver wax. Pours pitch black, very thick.
Aroma is of molasses and touch of coffee malts. This beer is up there with the best of Imperial Stouts. Too bad it is so hard to get. drfabulous (1275), Columbia, Missouri, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 5, 2008 Thanks to Thomas. Motor Oil. Coffee. Wine. Very intense stout. The only other I can think of that compares is Bell’s Expedition. The thick pour. No head. Massive flavor. Excellent. Waited a long time for this one. Tasted during recent Indiana trip. grandridge (222), Port Clinton, Ohio, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jul 3, 2008 Updated: Oct 17, 20082008 vintage: I had one of these earlier but didn’t get around to rating it. I figured I would relax with another one for rating #100. Pours like the used motor oil I just poured from my car. Aroma is roasted malt, some sweetness of caramel and vanilla. Flavor is coffee, vanilla and a nice sweet finish that isn’t bitter or too sweet. This beer is one of my favorites along with speedway and black albert. I guess I’ll be sitting on the rest of em’ and see how they hold up with a year or three. TikiE (360), Sylva, North Carolina, USA
| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jun 28, 2008 Bottled: Traveled a long way for this legendary beer! Pours a black oil color with a syrup texture. Hits the nose with roasted chocolate and coffee. The flavor blasts into your mouth and palate with a huge blast of vanilla and other delicious flavors that stay after the beer is finished. The overall impression of this beer is one that will last forever. Wasnt able to be at Dark Lord Day but met a new friend at Three Floyds and he hooked me up with it. Thanks Mark for this amazing beer!!!! Collint (465), Sylva, North Carolina, USA
| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Jun 28, 2008 2008 Bottle, made its way all the way to NC on a long road trip thanks to TikiE. Pours slow and thick, almost oil. Color is solid black, with a dark brown head. good lacing with a smooth body. Flavor is at first sweet vanilla, then chocolate and a finish of roast coffee, very distinct. Smooth as hell, this is one of my favorite Impy Stouts. airforce1 (61), Atascosa, Texas, USA
