22oz bottle purchased from Total Wine in Clearwater FL. My first imperial stout! As such, I should mention that I’m not much of a stout drinker. More of a hop fan. So I figured an imperial stout with a lot of hops could be up my alley. Pours black with some head depending on the pour. Smells very very much like a stout. All strong malts. Tastes pretty much like a stout too - in fact, somewhat surprisingly so. Lots of roasted malts and some hints of coffee. There are some hops in the aftertaste, but it’s not as substantially different from some other stouts as I was expecting. But it’s definitely a very full flavoured stout - I would drink more stouts if they were like this one. Can’t say I particularly tasted the alcohol - though I felt it!

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Black beer with a strong brown head. The aroma is mildly roasted, and the flavour is deeply roasted and bitter. Overall a nice bitter stout.
