Draft at the Birch. Pitch black as you’d expect. Thin tan head. The aroma is pretty caged but this drinks with a smoky bite. There’s a definite licorice kick as well. (#4458, 1/28/2012)

Nice dakr and lasting head, colour is black! nice but a little simple yet powerfull nose. Medium body and length. Strange greene tone. nice but weird. A litght chili burern in the late exit making You want to taste this again and again.

Bottle. Pours black with a frothy light brown head. Smells of chocolate and peppers with plenty of malt. Tastes a moderate sweet, medium bitter, and a nice spicy followup. Full bodied. Creamy texture. Finishes mildly spicy.

09/05/2012 Brasserie 4:20 (tap). Nera, impenetrabile, abbondante schiuma color cappuccino, morbida e persistente. Aroma intenso e molto interessante, caffettoso, con molta liquirizia, però alla lunga stanca un po’. In bocca è moderatamente dolce, caffè, liquirizia, con un finale pepato un po’ sgradevole. Manca un po’ di corpo e risulta anche leggermente acquosa. Gradazione alcolica un po’ bassa per una imperial stout.

On tap at LP. Jet black pour with a beige head. Aromas of malts, some chocolate and vanilla. Tastes of roasted malts, coffee, with the peppers remaining in the background leaving a nice burn at the finish.

Bottle c/o Rich for X-mas. Thanks! Pours dark brown, black in the glass, with a small brown head. Aromas of olive, caramel, toffee, coffee, and some vanilla/alcohol. The flavor is roasty cocoa and coffee, mocha, and toffee. Some lactose and coffee in the finish. Creamy feel, with medium carbonation and full body; dry finish. Very nice. [921]

Bottle shared by brew3crew. Poured a cloudy dark brown color with an average creamy brown head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy toasted chocolate malt, licorice and alcohol aroma. Medium to heavy sweet toasted malt flavor with a medium to heavy sweet and small alcohol bite finish of long duration. Medium to full body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation. This is a standout beer.
