A very hoppy, American style imperial stout, with strong Amarillo in the nose and flavor - lots of black malt bitterness and roasted barley compliment these hops fairly well - some smooth oat charcter, but the barley is a light bit abrasive - despite this, the hop and malt character play off of each other fairly well - however, there is a light vegetal note that is a touch off putting - otherwise fairly good.
