jonno (151), Japan Aug 16, 2008 Imperial Rodenbach? THis was a 2001 bottle that was highly vinuous, unlike any imperial stout I’ve had before. Interesting, but not something I would go for regularly tdaglow (7), USA does not count Aug 15, 2008 This was a very deep dark pour with a thin tan head. The aroma was of deep roasted malt and almost an almond or nut, coaco and heavy molasses. The flavor on the other hand was very difficult to pin down. I’m going to have to give it the old palms up and shoulder shrug. I liked it though. fidel (119), Livermore, California, USA Aug 14, 2008 2003 Dark brown, roasted malts, molasses, chocolate, alcohol, soy sauce?, spice, fruity. "sweet, sour, and salty. ??? " Strange! cmatkins (12), chapel hill, North Carolina, USA Aug 8, 2008 Tastes of Soy Sauce. 1 of 4 beers I have ever poured out (with about 900 beers tasted so far). I fail to taste the complexity and I can’t say that I will ever try this beer again. Absolutely terrible! Mitch_Wayne (77), Kokkola, Finland Aug 7, 2008 My first imperial stout ever and boy did it make me jump at first. Now I can say I truly love the sherrylike taste with huge molasses and rather challenging taste that ends up nicely dry and woody. The body is so extreme it makes the uninitiated run for cover and the sediment on this big boy looks eerily like frogspawns.
