Bottle at De Wildeman, Amsterdam, 29.02.12 cannot believe that I hadn’t rated this before as I have definately had this on a few occasions. Pours dark, dark brown with a tan head. Great stout, quite pushy and in yer’ face, easy drinking, soft in the mouth, creamy and with some vanilla with chocolate and a little roasty. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

Draught @ Monk’s Porter House. Dark brown to black coloured with a medium brown head. Strong fruity and alcoholic hinted aroma. Full palate. Finish is strong roasted spicy and fruity hinted with a bitter roasted longer ending. Strong brew with lots of flavour. I like it.

capoccetta (171) - roma, ITALY - FEB 26, 2012
veramente una buona imperial con classici sentori di liquerizia, ciccolato e una dolce tostatura di caffe. Equlibrata tanto che non sembra cosě forte....molto persistente.

33 cl bottle. Bottled on 02.11.2011.
Originally rated on 20090410. (9+4+8+4+17)
Pours dark ruby red, almost black color with medium off-white head. Aroma of dark ripe fruits, distant hops, ash dry chocolate, mild smoke, roasted malts, mocha-like coffee and distant vegetable notes. Flavor of ash dry chocolate, mild liquorice notes, roasted malts, dark ripe fruits and some cocoa. Very smooth and creamy palate with a long sweetish creamy finish. Surprisingly a bit too mellow.

Zubatý Pes, Prága. Régóta vadászom már, végre sikerült ráakadni. Átláthatatlan fekete színe van, olajosan hömpölyög és óriási krémes-tömör bézs habot fejleszt, ami gyakorlatilag el sem múlik. Illatában, ahogy azt vártam, leginkább a nagyon jó minőségű pörkölt kávé érezhető, némi szintén jól megpörkölt maláta és gyümölcsös komlóaroma társaságában. Íze is hasonló élményeket tartogat, szintén a kávés-malátás pörkölt ízek vannak előtérben, de a finom gyümölcsös komló, illetve aszalt gyümölcsös és fekete csokoládés megnyilvánulások is színt visznek bele. Nagyon száraz és keserű, olajos teste van, tovább éppen megfelelően szénsavas. Lassú kortyokban fogyasztandó és érdemes kicsit várni, hogy melegedjen.

Braudog (4607) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - FEB 17, 2012
Draft at Aces & Ales as "Disputin." The first sensation isn’t quite appealing, with an almost ashtray-like aroma. But that fades and this drinks with a big licorice bite up front. But this ends up being super easy to drink for an Imperial Stout, scarily smooth. (#4476, 2/13/2012)
