Jul 8, 2008 12oz bottle from KIngdom Liquors (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark black color with a thick and frothy tan/brown head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is heavy dark chocolate, coffee, toffee, and sweet malt. Medium to full-bodied with a smooth and silky syrupy finish. Flavor has notes of dark chocolate, sweet malt, slight bitterness, toffee. Very nice Imperial Stout.

Jul 5, 2008 Poured a midnight black color with a small tan head, leaving trace amounts of lacing. Smell is roasty, chocolate-y, and a bit fruity. Taste is pretty nice, some chocolate and roastiness, but seemed to have more earthiness from the hops than I liked. I think this would be eliminated with aging, and would increase my score. Medium to full bodied, medium carbonation. Was fun to drink, and would like to get more, but would like to age it to see how it develops.

Jun 27, 2008 (Bottle) pours black with a thick brown head. Aroma is malty with chocolate. Flavour is roasted malty, chocolate is less pronounced. Rather dry and thin for an imperial stout and with a tiny actually pleasant sourish sharpness. Alcohol is well hidden.

Jun 18, 2008 33 cl bottle - Black beer with a creamy dark brown head. Chocolate dominates the aroma, though hints of smoked malt can be found. Flavor is nothing but incredible, lots of chocolate and liquorice and hints of vanilla. Hard to believe that this is an imperial stout!
A very special experience of a beer!
