Bottle. Pours almost black with a rather large head. Roasted malty. A bit sweet with notes of coffe and chocolate. Feels a bit too alcoholic for me and also a bit too high carb for me.

Pours a very black (and thin) color with rich chocolately head that dissipated. Alcohol aroma was immediately released in the pour. Mostly malty nose. Light fruit hints, and some more malt. Relatively thin body for the high alcohol, then again it is not an Imperial Stout (as I originally suspected) and is justifiably ’runny’ or thin bodied. The malty body is not as well balanced as it should be. This is more evident the further I get into the glass. But shit yeah! - that’s a lot of alcohol.

Very dark, no light getting through this guy, bubbly head reminscent of cola. Very smokey notes with some dark chocolate, and a good hint of coffee also. A very respectable beer.

Black with a light brown head. Alcoholic aroma with caramel and roasted malts. Drinks acidic and sweet with a liqorice finish. Medium bodied with a "thin" mouth fee and alcoholic warmth.

Bottle - liquor express - dark beer with a thin tan head. Aroma is a bit boozy, toasty, and licorice. Palate is a bit thin. Meh.

Botella de 330ml. Copa Globo. Saboreada en jul´11. Negra en color con espuma bronceada que crea una capa amplia, cremosa y persistente. En nariz uvas maduras, pasas y toques de chocolate. Los sabores y el paladar están dominados por un intenso dulzor. Sensación bastante empalagosa.
330ml bottle. Snifter glass. Enjoyed on jul´11. Black in color. Tan froth creates a creamy lasting & thick crown. Ripe grapes, raisins & hints of chocolate to the nose. Flavors & mouthfeel are dominated by a heavy sweetness. Quite cloying sensation.

on my wishlist since 7/10/2005 .. . stamped 597’06 13:32 .. Drank Dec 25 2008 @ 1pm .. . Slight burnt out bbq pit + tire and even some light guinness aromas ..great foamers .. . pretty roasty stuff.. easy drinking for sure .. . sounds like cola .. . not awfully complex but seems to be disappearing quickly in my glass .. . glad i got to try it but i want a fresh sample, not aged .. . Mosquitoes remind us that we are not as high up on the food chain as we think..

UPDATED: MAR 15, 2009 Taste 2007 bottle. Looks: Black body with a tan top. Aroma: Smoke and chocolate. Taste: Smoke and chocolate with some bitter and musty hops and yeast. Not a very balanced flavor. Not bad, but beaten by very many other more balanced stouts.
