Black with lasting tan head. Light roasted nose.Good roasted malt flavor with decent body

Dark brown colour. Aroma of coffee, raisin, fruitcake. Thin, slightly coffeeish body. Slight tartness in the finish.

Pitch black with a thin dark brown head. Faint aroma of caramel, dark chocolate and a touch of coffee. Flavour shows caramel sweetness up front, and a long bitter and roasty finish. Not really bad, but with an ABV as high as this, it needs way more complexity. As it warms, there is a bit of an alcoholic taste. The roastiness never seems harsh, but the body was a bit thin. The brewpub alternates between calling this an Imperial stout and a winter stout. It is definitely the latter and not the former.

Black colour with lingering dark head. mild malt nose. good raost malt taste but a little to thin.
