Jul 20, 2005 Vintage 2001. - Black in colour, with no head. Overwelming nose with notes of treacle, tobacco and raisins. The taste is dominated by roasty flavours, and by the thickness of this stuff,- it really fills out your mouth. Ive never tasted anything like it, this really is unique!

Jul 15, 2005 My 2000 bottle must have become flat. In the picture for this selection, I see a head on the glass of black stuff. Anyway, I need to re-rate a good bottle in the future. Straightforward molasses and coffee flavors. Very thick and promising, wish it was carbonated at least a little.

Jul 11, 2005 2001 Bottle. Black pour, no head at all, looked like one of my attempts at the style in homebrewing. Syrupy looking. Some roasted notes and strong molasses notes in aroma. Thick mouthfeel. Roasted flavours dominate the taste, which were nice, but as it warms becomes almost wine like and strong. This was ok, but pretty simple.

Jul 3, 2005 (Bottle 27,5 cl) Pitch black, completely opaque, tar-like appearance. Absolutely no head. Extremely thick and - again - tar-like. No carbonation whatsoever. Fatty, earthy aromas, some cork also. Dry with a bitter finish. Actually not overly complex, but completely extreme in body. A very difficult beer to finish. 250605

Jun 27, 2005 Noire extrêmement foncée sans aucune mousse. Puissantes odeurs de bouchon de liège et de cacao amer. Cave moisie, terre humide, mousse de tourbe et sauce soya sont espérament un faux portrait du résultat final souhaité. Mince et vineuse en bouche, aucune effervescence. Bouteille Charlie’s Liquor, Janvier 2005.

Jun 25, 2005 Vintage 2001. Vinous, raisiny, grape-like aroma. Quite vinous and smells wine-like. Hints of molasses are also present. Opaque dark brown with a quickly dissipating tannish head into flatness. Wow, this is really thick. Start is extremely chewy with some chocolate roasts to start. Some oxidation in the middle finishing acetic figs and molasses are also in the end. Alcohol is noticeable. Quite warming. Not your every day imperial stout, but unique in its own way. I’d like to try a 2003 bottle...

Jun 22, 2005 2000: Pour is black with no head...I mean no head...smell is portlike with alcohol...so far, I would not guess this is an impy stoud...how’d they get that head in the picture...oaky in the nose too...five years and the alcohol is overwhelming at only 9%...dark fruits and a hint of coffee...interesting mouthfeel, but this is really not very good....

Jun 20, 2005 Version 2000. Robe noire très opaque avec une trainée brune visqueuse sur le verre. Aucune mousse. Bois, alcool, réglisse, café, chocolat amer, houblon. L’alcool est peut-être un peu trop présente pour 9%, mais c’est bien bon!
