Courtesy of Sparky28. Pours a dark brown with a thin white head. Aroma is mostly chocolate. Tastes of typical coffee, cocoa, and small hop presence. Palate was thinner than most Impy stouts, which intrigued me. Very enjoyable.

Oct 9, 2008 bomber from Kegbear. Thanks. Pours about as dark as a beer can pour.The taste is dominated by the roasted malt but these also some chocolate, especially in the aftertaste. One of the most quaffable Imp. Stouts I have ever had. Would drink again

Sep 15, 2008 Pours like motor oil from the bomber with a trim brown head. Smells of coffee and tastes predominatly of dark cocoa, red/black pepper, and sweet malts. Balanced flavor with a velvety mouthfeel. Highly drinkable, especially for an imperial stout.

Sep 8, 2008 Tap @ Full Sail PIlsener Room. Decent imperial stout, taste of chocolat and mocha. Some caramel, lacks a bit on the bitterness. Still quite ok.

Aug 22, 2008 Pours pitch black with a thin tan head. Has a roasty aroma that reminds me of coffee. Has a medium heavy body with a fair amount of carbonation. Taste is dominated by chocalate and roast coffee. Smooth aftertaste. I had this brew with a cigar and it complimented the cigar very well. A sublte smokiness added by the cigar made this a much better brew. I rated it on its own merits, though. With the cigar it goes over a 4.0 easily. Overall I really enjoyed this brew and would drink again with a cigar anytime.
