BeerZack (116), Austin, Texas, USA May 6, 2008 Black with bubbly khaki head that sticks all around the glass.
Dark caramalts, cocoa, marshmallow, raisin and lightly spicy hops.
Bitter cocoa, caramel, roasted barley, dark fruit, raisins and a lingering hop bitterness throughout. Couldn’t pick out much of the hop characteristics.
Full bodied and dry mouthfeel with medium-low carbonation. Pretty good.
TURDFERGUSON (1021), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Jul 22, 2008 Bottle from mgumby. Thanks Mike! Nice, roasty imperial stout here. Good chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, molasses notes. Well done, but imperial stouts are really boring me at the moment. mar (522), Dallas, Texas, USA Jul 20, 2008 black pour with a thin espresso head. big chocolate and roasted malts on the nose. great thickness with a smooth roasted coffee flavor that finishes with a nice hint of chocolate. heemer77 (3612), Savannah, Missouri, USA Jul 17, 2008 The body is perfectly black with a medium tan head. The aroma is molassas and coffee. There is also a little hint of toasted walnuts. The taste has some coffee and dark chocolate. This is very roasted and has some almonds. Decent, but not great. MamoSean (3), Mission Viejo, California, USA does not count Jul 17, 2008 For the price of the bottle ($3.99), this is hard to beat. Definitely worth having in the fridge as an everyday option. pours a dark, dark brown (black) and has a strong smell to it - almost as much as Stone Imperial Russian Stout. deep brown head that rises and falls nicely. The coffee flavor is prevalent in the first few sips then dissipates in favor of the currants and other flavors. A bargain Stout lover’s dream Theis (1922), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 11, 2008 Bottle at home (thanks Sune for shipping this) - shared with Mette. Black Black Black - brown head.
