Dark brown in color with a thin tan head. Nice roasty aroma. Pretty simple coffee/chocolate aromas with a similar taste. Palate was somewhat thin, but I found that to actually be pleasant and easy to drink. Alcohol was completely hidden.

Dark brown, roasted malts, truffles, dark chocolate, molasses, fairly acidic. Lots of hops, full bodied. Decent stout, but I just don’t groove so much on these types of stout that are so acidic. Alcohol well hidden. No compliants, but not my cup of tea.

on tap at churchill pub. Big roasted aroma and taste, coffee and chocolate. Balanced but just fair for the style. Black bodied, a small amount of head.

Draft. Blackish beer with a brown head. Malt and chocolate aroma with light roast. Malt and chocolate flavor with coffee. Medium-plus bodied. Coffee and chocolate linger with light roast.

On tap at The Local during San Diego beer week. Black pour with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate, roast, a bit of coffee and toffee. Flavor is chocolatey and roasty. Some good dark malt notes. A pretty strong dose of roasted bitterness but well balanced. Good beer.

Black with a creamy tan head. Roasted grain and chocolate aroma and taste with a bitter burnt coffee finish.

Thanks to Hopdog for sharing. Pours a nice deep dark black- oily viscous and a thin lasting tan head. Aroma is on the hoppy side for an imperial stout but not over the top- still good dark chocolate some light roast and coffee notes- hops are citrusy pnw style- columbus/crystal/cent. Earthy tea-like hops in the flavor along with nice bittersweet chocoalte some good neutral crystal malt sweetness roasted barley and espresso notes. Finsih si nice and smooth with a slight mineral- slate drying finish. Really nice Impy stout.

Poured d ark mahogany color with a small, light tan head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malts, sticky chocolate, smoke, caramel, and light vanilla. Taste of more roasted malts, some smoke, resiny tobacco, chocolate, and light alcohol in the finish.

Thanks to hopdog for sharing this hand bottle. Pours a deep black with amber notes. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, light coffee and vanilla. Flavor of the same, coffee and chocolate coming through more in flavor.

Good aroma, coffee, chocolate, and a little smoke. Looks like a stout should, very dark, almost black. As soon as it hit my mouth I was a bit disappointed. Very thin, very light (I know its 9.3), palate does not deliver what the aroma presents. Overall a nice IS.
