sloth (1657), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA Feb 21, 2009 Small brown head with fair retention, lacing was spotty. Black pour. Light nose of roast and coffee, lightly fruity. Medium body, lightly oily on the palate. Laid back roast and coffee flavors, light pineyness with some berryish and sweet malt notes. Lightly sweet malty roasty finish. Props to captaincougar for the bomber. Thanks Tom! GMCC2181 (845), Bear, Delaware, USA Feb 20, 2009 Bottle shared by sloth at SL. Thanks Bert. Nice black color, small head. Good nose of chocolate, roasted malts and a touch of hops. Taste was the same. Nice chocolate, coffee and roasted malt taste. Never heard of a "nitrogen" conditioned beer before. Texture and carbonation level was average. Pretty smooth. Overall a solid RIS. Thanks bert! danielcurtis81 (879), San Diego, California, USA Feb 20, 2009 Bottle. Pours a deep cola brown with very little head. Nose is malty with a nice coffee tone. Nice medium espresso and chocolate flavors. Nicely balanced malts. Mouth is fairly full, sticky finish. Flavors fade on this beer from the initial intensity but still a pretty good IRS. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Feb 16, 2009 Black with a larg pudding-like tan head. Aroma is of dark fruit and coffee. Taste is of prune, roasted malts and coffee. Thick body. zach8270 (2051), Henrietta, New York, USA Feb 13, 2009 (bottle - 22 oz) Clear black pour with a thick tan head. Aroma is a lot of chocolate and roasted malts. Some coffee and chocolate milk come through at the end. Flavor begins with a strong hint of black licorice mixing with some roasted malts. The middle is a good amount of espresso and chocolate malts with a lightly bitter and burnt malt finish. A little thin-bodied for an imperial stout.
