1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20Wow, this one was bad. Maybe, there was something wrong with it. No head. Looked like flat coke. No aroma and the taste was nasty. Suspect I got an old or bad bottle considering the other reviews were O.K.

Poured black with a generous head! Lots of dark chocolate flavor followed up with a generous taste of coffee and a hint of vanilla! Too much carbonation to be called creamy. After glow is mostly dark bitter sweet chocolate. It is a pleasant stout but not the best I ever had.

Bottle to pint. Looks solid; black with thin beige lacing. Smells and tastes of dark malt. Average on the palate. Decent, but nothing special.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours black with a very small head that dissipates quickly. Nose is roasted coffee, chocolate and grass. Taste is sweet with good bitterness throughout. Mouthfeel is thin bodied, crisp and coating with a long finish.

Pretty good stuff.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
bottle - Pours very dark brown with a quarter inch tan head. The aroma is of roasted malt and coffee. It has a rich roasted malt flavor with coffee and hops bitterness. It’s a solid brew, considerably better than their porter I had earlier. I would agree with a prior rater that this beer is a stout, not an imperial stout.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to large sized light brown colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a no visible carbonation opaque dark brown colored body and an excellent lacing. The aroma was brown malt dark chocolate dark malt and licorice. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish. The flavor contained notes of roasted malt brown malt and dark malt. A wonderful best in class brew.

From trade. Beer pours nice and black, with a small fast fading tan head. the aroma is roasted malt... but no overly roasted. I would have expected smoke/coffee/caramel/etc... The malts smell sweat though. This is pretty thin for an imperial stout. The flavor is straight forward... This would better be classified as a stout than an imperial stout. It is ok.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. Weak chocolate malt, strong metallic aroma. Black brown with a small tan head. Dark roasted malt, coffee, metallic flavor. Possibly a bad bottle.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Big taste up front, a little bitter? Maybe? Clean finish, pretty light for a stout, kinda crisp
