I had a bottle conditioned sample courtesy of Larry H, the North Wales brewer. Jet black body, nice creamy head. Musty coffee aroma, chocolate sweetness, roasted malts. Heavy duty imperial stout definitely worth trying.

Bottle. Poured an opaque dark brown color with a tan head. Thick pour. Smelled of chocolate, tar, alcohol, and a hint of black rubber. Full bodied and slightly sweet. Tarry, chocolatey flavor with low to moderate carbonation and some alcohol warmth.

Big thanks to foureyedgeek for sharing. Dark brown with a thin tan head. Roasty smell with chocolate and coffee. Tastes smooth and creamy with lots of cocoa and espresso notes. This is a really good stout!

From bottle courtesy of foureyedgeek. Light sweet nose with some coffee and a bit of chocolate. Mild hop character. Vanilla. Dark black clear with thin cocoa head. Medium bodies with medium carbonation. Sweet start with chocolate, coffee, and licorice. Bitter finish with lots of dark bitter chocolate. Nice Stout.
