Pours a totally bitch black colour with a medium creamy brown head leaving a very good thick lacing. Lovely aroma of dark chocolate indeed with coffee, roasted malt and bitter hops. Great mouthfeel. The flavour has very good profund creamy chocolate, good roasty maltiness, dark fruits, bitter hops, nut and some alcohol. Very good long lasting finish with chocolate, roasted malt and some alcohol. A mother of a stout indeed! bierkoning (6116), La Tropica, Netherlands

***RE-RATE*** A Mes rate:
Batch 7205 bottle at Chris_O’s HogTownHarry minifest. Big thanks to Harry. Not sure what was wrong with the bottle I had at Chris’s Shindig but the 3 times I have had this since have convinced me this needs a re-rate. Brown but almost black with a slight rim of tan. Lovely chocolate malt aroma with really nice hops. Excelent roasty flavour with a long long bitter finish. Actually the bitterness throughout is utterly fantastic. Thick and luxurious palate. An awesome impy stout. ***ORIGINAL NOTES*** (Score: 7, 4, 7, 4, 15 = 3.7) Bottle at Chris O’s shindig. Black with a good tan head. Big fat and way overweight. Roasty, malty, coffee chocolate and huge huge alcohol. Coffee finish that has an odd acidic almost sour note to it. Good but rather over rated in my opinion. thewolf (5842), Kolding, Denmark

Pours "bitch"-black as Jacob and I agreed. A Medium creamy brown head on top. Extreme amount of lacing. Wonderful aroma, coffee, loads and loads of chocolate and a slight hoppyness at the back. Thick, sticky creamy mouthfeel. Complex flavour. Sweet, cream, roasted, lots of chocolate. A good dose of hops without ever going bitter. Some nuts as well. Power and stunning balance! bu11zeye (5731), Frisco, Texas, USA

Aromas and tastes of mocha chocolates, roasted malts, and light bitter coffee. This is one good tasting beer. Alcohol content well hidden. Smooth and easy to drink.
