Ungstrup (11031), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 22, 2004 Updated: Nov 6, 2005[Batch 4, bottled November 2002, Sampled November 2004] A pitch black beer with a huge brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of coffee and alcohol. The flavor is very sweet with notes of coffee, chocolate and prunes, but also hints of infection. Oakes (6819), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Jan 24, 2003 Black. Big nose - roasty, woody, burnt fruits. Lots of roast, smooth malts. Good stout, but not living up to the hype IMO (and Radek's). kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Name: Poseidons Imperial Stout (Barrel Aged)

yespr (6162), Copenhagen O, Denmark Jun 30, 2007 RBSG07. From 1.5 L bottle. Pours dark brown with a chocolate creamy head. Aroma sterong sweat raisins and dark malt. Flavour is very sweet raisins and quite dark roasted. Sweet finish, almost cloying. argo0 (6145), Washington DC, USA Feb 8, 2004 (Nov. 2002) Black, slightly oily with small brown head. Aroma is mild sweet, some wood, vinous, some chocolate, light vinegar. Taste is mild sweet, vinous, cherry, chocolate. Medium-full body. Good beer, but not a Top 50 in my bood -- I like my cask-aged beers to demonstrate more characteristics of the underlying beer -- this one has too much wine and too little imperial stout.
