Apr 10, 2005 Updated: Apr 28, 2005Special thanks to Patricia for this draft sample: poured pitch black with a massive rocky brown head. Very strong coffee, cherry, chocolate aroma. Mild alcohol in the nose. Big roasted malt and coffee taste. There is no doubt this is a coffee stout. Light sweetness up front followed by the bitter coffee finish. This is the new batch (April 2005) and I must say it is excellent..

Apr 18, 2006 Bottle. Milk chocolate aroma with some richness. Pretty much completely opaque. Would be clear if you could see it. Huge rootbeer float head. Perfect appearance. Dark tan head. Unbelievably outstanding brew. Can tell there’s some alcohol but it is somewhat hidden. Smooth, but with a ton a flavor. Worth $17? If any beer is, this one’s close. Could they charge less? Yes, but by limiting production they increase demand and the high price makes people interested. It doesn’t appear they have any trouble moving it.

Feb 8, 2009 12oz bottle poured into a glass. This dark brown beer pours with a chocolate milk-looking head. The aroma is nice, rich and sweet with the expected suspects playing a prominant role along with something sweet like sugared prunes. The flavor is a wonderful arrangement of alcohol, coffee and dark malts. The body is thick and syrupy and refuses to let you forgot what you’re drinking. Many thanks to french tickler for this beer.

Mar 19, 2005 Wow great Imperial Stout. Am I dinking coffee or beer? Coffee, expresso, and maybe a hint of cherry flavor. Finishes creamy, rich, and crisp.

Jun 6, 2008 341 ml bottle. I gotta start by saying that I’m not sold at all to that kind of beer. I’m more of a belgian strong type of guy. But, this beer was exellent. Brown creamy head, dark brown color and strong coffee/malt aroma. Taste of coffee, chocolate, roasted malt. Alcohol is very well hidden under all those well balanced flavors. A pleasure from beginning to the end. Really worth the extra bucks.

Mar 23, 2005 Updated: Jul 11, 2005Bottle 11/04... Explosive, poured opaque black color with a medium sized tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Great aroma of coffee, chocolate, brown sugar, vanilla, bourbon, and anise. More of the same in the taste, lots of coffee and light alcohol. High quality beer, I actually am excited to try this on nitro, because as others have said, the extra carbonation is the only drawback.
Nitro Draft 7/05... Creamy mouthfeel with a great balance of chocolate and roasted coffee malts. Faint alcohol in the background. Now I see what the big deal is.

Nov 14, 2005 Pours a dark motor oil black color with a thin creamy beige head. Aroma is dominated by fresh roasted coumbian coffee. Taste is ALL COFFEE. A very interesting imperial stout loaded with fresh roasted coffee flavor. Very unique and very good.
