Pours pitch black with a large, creamy, tan head. Smells strongly of ginger with subtle cocoa and bready notes. Taste is exactly like chocolate gingerbread; that really is all that can be said, it’s sweet and a touch spicy. Medium-to-full bodied with a velvety texture and soft mouth-carbonation, Buffalo Bayou Gingerbread [Imperial] Stout finishes sweet that fades to ginger spiciness after a while.

Gingerbread cookies at the start. Cinnamon red hots at the finish. Delicious and sweet! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours jet black with dark brown head. Smells of gingersnaps and dark malts. Taste of gingerbread, biscuits and a hint of cinnamon with a nice light biter aftertaste. Overall this is a smooth flavorful stout that has a bite!!!

Mmmm, if their Chai Porter wasn’t quite to my liking, this most definitely is. Solid chocolate and roasted malt base with a generous sprinkling of gingerbread spice. Naturally it’s a bit sweet so make it a liquid dessert.

Black with a solid light brown head that laces nicely. Aroma of gingerbread, obviously, cinnamon, chocolate and roast. Taste is sweet gingerbread and chocolate cookies; rich, sweet and dessert-like. Medium-full bodied and creamy.

On tap at Texas Beerfest. Pours a dark brown with medium tan head that diminishes rather quickly. The aroma is cinnamon and brown sugar. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet roast and cinnamon with light dry finish. Easy to drink a very impressive Spice from Buffalo Bayou.

Gingerbread cookies, sweet, the beer has bite because of sweetness but smooth finish.

Draft. Aroma is ginger bread with a little booze. The appearance is black with a lasting tan head. The taste starts out ginger and spicy then rolls into a dark malt and finishes a coffee, pumpkin spice. The palate finishes a dry dark. Overall, a good, sturdy stout that I would buy again fo sho. Well done. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle from specs downtown. wow, the spice level is pretty upfront and its a hefty brew. deep brown with a good sized head, i thought it was maybe overly done but i finish my bottle without problems.
