Jan 24, 2009 Appearance: Midnight brown with a ring of tan suds and swirls at the top.
Aroma: Dark chocolate, chocolate pudding, plums, and black licorice.
Taste: Dark chocolate, wood, a light rum,vanilla, and burnt malts.
Mouthfeel: Amazingly thick and smooth. Not goey or syrupy like some beers of the same style.
Overall: This beer is amazing. I got this on a trade with daknole, and must say...it’s worth the hype.

Jan 21, 2009 Updated: Jan 22, 2009very dark black with a deep mocha colored foamy head. complex aroma with anise, chocolate, and fig...also a touch winey...reminiscent of a barleywine. flavor is creamy chocolate up front finishing out with anise and then fig followed by a hoppy citrus pop and a hint of coffee. great thick and rich mouthfeel but i cant get away from the barleywine qualities that are present subtley in the aroma and also in the warming alcohol flavor at the finish. this is a huge stout.

Jan 20, 2009 12oz bottle. Super dark pour with a nice tan head. Nice dark fruity aroma, very rich and delicious smelling. Damn, this is good,nice little chocolaty flavor, very slight bitterness in the end. Very well done.

Jan 17, 2009 Bottled, brought by Bullit’s girlfriend. Dark color, short head. Aroma of chocolat, malt. Delicious balance. Malty and bitter taste. Everything a good imperial stout should have!

Jan 17, 2009 Massive. Not the sweetish massive of DL or Darkness, but a nearly solid malt ball of roast and black-as-night toffee/tootsie roll. For me, the gravity kills the nuance. I like fig, coffee, vanilla, unity in my stouts and this is just weight and darkness. The overall means that I will likely not drink it again. Not ’cause it’s bad, just because I don’t need to. This taste could go on my headstone it’s so indelible.

Jan 12, 2009 Bottle: Poured a black tar with a milk chocolate colored head. The aroma was roasted malts, cocoa, and coffee. The flavor was tasty, bitter dark chocolate, creamy milk chocolate, and coffee. This a stout like no other. Overall, excellent!
