Finally got to try this one--I’ve been looking forward to it for awhile. Poured an oily black with just the slightest remnants of a darker brown head. It smells deliciously of coffee and chocolate. It doesn’t feel too thick-bodied and the flavor is wonderous--an explosion of cappicino, coffee, and chocolate, wit an aftertaste that lingers. This is a very drinkable and delicious imperial stout and I would highly recommend this one. I’ll have to make sure I grab a 4-pack before they sell out for the season!

Jan 6, 2010 draught. pours black with tan head. you get the aroma of fresh brewed coffee in the morning and smell the oats. i would relate this beer to the all-in-one meal gum from willy wonka. when was drinking this it made me feel like i was going through the process of eating a full warm breakfast on a cold morning. i could taste the cofee, oats, chocolates and spices coming together and making your taste buds beg for more . best beer i’ve had to date

Jan 5, 2010 Beer pours dark brown to black with a brown head. There are slight brown highlights at the edges. The first aroma is strong black coffee. As the beer warmed to room temperature, I got more of a chocolate smell but coffee was always the main aroma. The taste is expectedly black coffee, easily the most coffee-filled beer I have ever drank. You never get too much chocolate flavor, but you get bitterness from the chocolate which is nice. The oatmeal comes through in the mouthfeel, making the beer very thick and creamy. Very good beer, one of the best I have ever drank.

Jan 3, 2010 Pours out black with smal brown head. Smells sweet and roasty. Taste is more of the same with some bite. Flavors of chocolate, coffee, cereal, cocoa, and hops. Thick and creamy stuff. Balanced and very drinkable.

Jan 1, 2010 Incredible aroma! The coffee beans are really prominent. The color is really dark and the taste has the chocolate with a little bit of oatmeal in there as well. Not too overpowering either. Very enjoyable.
