Dec 10, 2007 Wow! for a none aged brew, this is full of wood nose. This had a great body with brown head. Real full body, lots of caramel and vanilla and coffee. Great bit alcohol presence.

Dec 1, 2007 Bottle - Dark black, nice thick tan head. Aroma of coffee and a hint of chocolate. Lots of coffee flavor with a little carmal. Very smooth and creamy. Actually picked up this 4 pack when I was looking for something else. Very drinkable, excellent beer.

Nov 23, 2007 Absolutely fell in love with this beer when I returned to Cleveland in 2005 for a visit, only to find out that the 6 packs I bought were at the end of the run and none were left for the rest of my visit. Anyway, sweet coffee flavor with some vanilla spice. 0 hops. Nice. Too many beers overly hopped out here in California. Outstanding Imperial Stout!

Nov 20, 2007 Black with small tan head. Mildly fruity aroma and taste, a bit like chocolate/coffee covered black cherries. Nice sweet quality with a bittersweet finish. Very good.

Nov 15, 2007 Bottle from kryptic. Aroma of charred vanilla beans, sweeter dark chocolate, molasses and roasting coffee. Pours deep, dark brown, almost black with virtually no head. Flavor initially has a lot of sweet vanilla notes. Some bittersweet chocolate developing. Roasted malt, coffee and a Snickers sweetness (chocolate, caramel, peanut and nougat). Creamy. Medium to full bodied. Finishes with a bittersweet chocolate bite. Thanks Mike!

Nov 11, 2007 12 oz bottle. Enjoy by 10/06. Dark mahogany with a slight tan head. Coffee and grapes fades to grass and tobacco. Mouthfeel is almost perfect; creamy, not too thick, with a dash of zesty carb to lighten. Taste offers coffee, brown sugar, plum and raisin. Nothing exotic but still a solid and approachable RIS.
