3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bomber. Pours a ’stouty stout’ color (blackish, with a beige head), good head retention and lacing. Nose is malty and pumpernickel. Mouth is medium bodied with some sweetness, malt and caramel up front, some milk chocolate hiding in there as well, some butterscotchy diacetyl, then coffee and a lingering bittersweet finish. Perhaps the best bang-for-the-buck bomber Ive bought all year, and a good Imperial Stout at that. Viva Lagunitas!
