Badgerben’s Cellar Reduction night courtesy of Skyview. Brown color with faint head. Malty body with oatmeal malt and a little molasses. The usual impy coffee and chocolate make a brief appearance as well.

Someone brought this to a Blind tasting in NY, thank you whoever. This ended up being the first beer of the tasting so I think my rating might have been a bit reserved in preparation for all the Imperial Stouts we were about to consume. Aroma is hoppy, leafy, and only lightly roasty. Taste is again hops-centered (not overly hoppy, that just comes out most) with a regular Imperial Stout hiding somewhere behind that. A lightly slick mouthfeel and a small tan head.

Bottle. Probably an aged bottle. Aroma of some smokiness. Flavor is roasted / smokey, and some meaty flavor. A little bit of acidic coffee, with a slightly thin palate.

Bomber. Pours blackish brown that admits some light, thin brown head. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla, citrus and yeast. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Taste starts sweetly, with chocolate, roasty maly and coffee. A touch of sharpness in an otherwise nice espresso pine finish.

A medium bodied imperial stout. Black and low carbonation. Some roasted malt and a little bit sweet. Some chocolate. Medium quality for the style.

Picked up single 22-oz bomber at John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR and sampled at Badgerben’s Cellar Reduction Night. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a fast dissolving light tan head that leaves behind a fine film and ring. Aroma of dark roasted malt, coffee, a touch of chocolate and some apple. Taste is smooth, full bodied, very light carbonatation with flavors of dark roasted malt, molasses, coffee and dark chocolate. Finish is semi-dry with a malt/coffee aftertaste.
