<br /><br />
<b><u>App.:</b></u>
Extremely dasrk brown poor, no head, looks fad...
<br /><br />
<b><u>Aromas:</b></u>
Humidity, chocolate, black cherries, hints of coffee (moka)... carrots?
<br /><br />
<b><u>Palate:</b></u>
Full bodied, flat, harsh bitter start that slowly fades... good sweetness
<br /><br />

Toast, burnt caramel, molasses
<br /><br />
<b><u>Notes:</b></u> Not a classic impy... closer to a belgian style imperial stout... dissapointing
martin21 (156), Quebec city, Quebec, Canada Dec 25, 2008 Deguster a Bieres et Saveurs. Saveurs de chocolat, cafe, grains roties, fruits foncer et confits et de melasse. Enorme complexiter. J ai bien aimer.
Tasted at Bieres et Saveurs. Chocolate, coffee, roasted grains, dark and candied fruits and molasse flavors. Very complex. I liked it! rederic (1569), montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 3, 2008 Pitch black color, with a creamy tan-colored head, leaving laces, light yeasty, roasty, fruity nose, with some dark bitter chocolate accents, and some floral hop leafy, coniferous, kind of apricot and peach aromas follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, fruity, sweet roasty malt character with a nice flowery hop grassy, leafy accent, still has a fruity side of apricot and peach, it could be the same yeast stein used for the ergot, with a roasted coffee bean bitterness, leading towards a fruity, roasty hop bittering finish. Pyrozoid (257), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Sep 6, 2008 (Dégusté avec french tickler @ Bieres et saveurs) Une biere noir avec un collet absent. Cerise noire et un petit coté bonbon. Gout un peu épicé. La biere ne devrait etre classé dans le style impérial stout. Sammy (3287), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 1, 2008 Festival Bières et Saveurs 2008. A Serviceable RIS, however there are so many good and great ones out there. Roast, medium mouthfeel. Black with mocha head. Strong roast aroma.
