4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 IMtheOptimator (1161) - Bethel, Connecticut, USA - JUN 27, 2009Poured black with a dark brown head. Rich strong aroma of roasty malts and dark fruits, an interplay of bitter and sweet. Flavor is surprisingly sweet though not intensely alcoholic as I expected... with strong notes of chocolate, vanilla, and dark fruits with a slight roasty hop kick. More drinkable than I initially gave it credit for, and a nice imperial stout overall.

Dark and intensely sweet with mixed flavor of dark chocolate, soy sauce, and hop resins. Pours the deepest black with a small ring of dark brown head. Alcohol legs are prevalent, but the burn is minimal for a 13% beer. Nice thick mouthfeel that still retains drinkability.
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 angelkostvo (299) - CZECH REPUBLIC - JUN 18, 2013
Black color with one finger beige head. Aroma of tropical fruits (surprisingly), chocolate, anise, cocoa, quite hoppy. Taste is light to medium sweet, a bit sour (in a good way) and almost no bitterness. Medium body, creamy slick texture, soft carbonation. One of the most interesting Imperial Stouts I have had!

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 Torrefacto (89) - - MAY 10, 2013
Color negro opaco, con espuma beige abundante y densa. Aromas especiados, canela y maltas tostadas con ligeros toques alcohólicos. En boca es compleja, posee un sabor intenso en el que se integran de forma muy equilibrada toques dulces y amargos acafetados que se muestran simultáneamente, aunque finalmente se imponen éstos últimos. No obstante, también se deja ver un ligero picazón muy agradable. posee una densidad media que facilita mucho su trago. ¡¡¡Sorprendente!!!
