meisterbrauMHB (30), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Jun 13, 2008 There is a lot going on in this beer and it is all good. Very complex flavor profile that you need to take time to absorb, not one to rush down...take your time and enjoy..Dont plan on operating any heavy machinery for awhile either.
guyinchicago (276), marengo, Illinois, USA Nov 29, 2008 To be fair I had this one right after bells expedition on thanksgiving day hence the lower score. black meduim body thin head far more lighter than the big boys in taste and appearence sbroome (12), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA Nov 28, 2008 A fantastic and simple stout. 9.1% and tastes it, not too weak, not too strong. It’s inky black with mild tan head. Nose is burnt roasts and nutty with a slight smokiness. Mouthfeel is oily and thick and stands out as a traditional imperial stout. Not as overwhelming as Bell’s amazing Expedition Stout, but very similar. More please. RIXbeer (102), USA Nov 28, 2008 Pours a nasty oily black with a creamy caramel colored 1 finger head. Smells of robust dark malts and espresso as the prominent aromas. There is also a nice rummy alcohol in there. This beer has a nice bitter taste with a smooth lingering plum and raisin aftertaste. This is a very smooth and easy to drink beer. Yeah 3 is good. 4 is better. 5 is gonna hurt. 6 will tuck me in for a good long nap. patrick767 (1547), fort wayne, Indiana, USA Nov 27, 2008 bottle - Pours black with a lingering tan head. It has an assertive aroma of roast malt, hops, and chocolate. The flavor is of dark roast malt, dark chocolate, and very aggressive hops that lead into a lingering bitter finish. Huge flavor. Excellent beer. fonefan (5529), Ulfborg, Denmark Nov 21, 2008 <b>Bottle 50cl. @ home.</b><br /><i>[ Courtesy of Secret Santa ].</i> Clear medium to dark black color with a average, frothy, excellent - good lacing, fully - mostly lasting, beige head.
