4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
My hopes were probably unrealistic after finally finding this top rated brew. I did enjoy it quite a bit but it wasn’t quite the transcendent experience I’d expected. There were some metallic elements I didn’t like and the mouth feel was a little weaker than I expected. That being said, it is a very good beer.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
2013 bottle. Huge thick black pour with plenty of thick tanned head. The smell is exactly what you would expect, thick black coffee, roasted malts, chocolate and so on, for sure smells BIG!. Up front there is big hit of roasted malts, aftertaste is coffee and black licorce, one mean stout...AWESOME
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Opaque pitch black with a espresso like small head. Nice chocolate, liquorice, mocha aroma. Flavor is strong chocolate, port, some woodyness and slight smoke. Full palate, warming and flavorful.
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Bottle 75 cl. Pours black in color with a thick and creamy beige head, which looks great and stays on as a cap for the whole time. Cacao powder, roasted notes, coffee liqour leading to a bit of vinous notes and even a bit of some marzipan sweetness in aroma. Dark and powerful. Later on there appears some notes of salty licorice as well. Oily texture and leaving a nice layer of it on the glass. Mouthfeel is incredibly smooth and creamy. Bitter cacao with notes of cherryliqour in taste. Has a gentle warming effect. A bit of coffee beans too with light notes of salty licorice in flavor. Rich and strong. Feels quite sweet at first, but turns into combination of bitter and dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee beans in finish. This is still one of my favorite imperial stouts, as it seems to be very well balanced and great tasting from time to time with those roasted notes, bitter chocolate, slightly sweet and slightly vinous
notes working well together.

4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Thick black body, small tan head. Rich coffee and chocolate aroma, fine wood hoppy undertone. Starts full, malty and thick, hop bitterness to balance. Big complexity. Sharper, warming ending. Huge flavour. Light fizz. Fantastic. (ZeeBra)
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
An old, ill kept bottle. Appearance perfect. Aroma is dark malt and chocolate. Taste is the same with a smooth richness, and finish which is nicely sweet. Overall a great impy stout, but would love to try a bottle that still has the fresh coffee bursting out. Almost non-existant in my bottle.
