Pours black with a medium nice head. Smell is lightly smoky, roasty, and coffee like. Taste is roasty coffee and rich dark chocolate with creamy cocoa like bittersweetness. Medium to thin bodied and very drinkable. Medium body and medium carbonation. Alcohol is completely hidden and I enjoyed the well blended coffee and chocolate flavors, neither of which dominated the other.

Aug 2, 2007 RBSG 07. A dark brown pour with a foamy brown head. A strong coffee flavor that is excellent. A dark astringent flavor of strong coffee and bitter chocolate. The palate is pretty solid across the board as well. A very good beer.

Jul 7, 2009 courtesy of tpd975. Had this oen several times, never got to rate it.
It was hard to rate after the amazing Aphrodisiaque.
pours pitch black, dark mocha head with some nice golden lacing.
Aroma malts, lots of roast and hints of coffee.
Taste, lots of coffee, roasted malts, leaves a faint tingly hopy mouthfeel with the abv making this one a nice and boozy beer.

Jan 2, 2009 11.5 oz. bottle. Pours black with a moderate chocolate brown head that faded to a film after the first two sips and left very little lace. The aroma is very unique with coffee being the obvious dominant trait, with notes of raisins, prunes, earth, and sake. Specifically, the sake aroma reminds me of a very earthy, cloudy brown Chinese sake my wife and I had bought in Chinatown years ago that came in a brown earthenware jar. The flavor is again dominated by the coffee, but without the fruitiness present in the aroma. An alcohol flavor emerges midway, and this grows quite a bit as the beer warms. Bitter coffee finish. Medium bodied, I’ll call it light for an impy stout. I enjoy coffee stouts, but there are a good many I’d reach for before having another of these, especially at $6.95 / bottle.
