Dec 22, 2007 Rich roasted malt nose with faint chocolate and coffee. Dark brown body with faint brown head. Lots of mocha and chocolate intermingled with the strong roasted malt flavor.

Dec 20, 2007 black with no head. flavor is dark chocolate, molasses, and mocha. some sweet cream. awesome flavor. medium bodied. roasty chocolate aroma but not that robust. bottles states that abv is 7.0%. i would call this more of a regular stout opposed to an imperial.

Dec 20, 2007 Updated: Nov 21, 200850 cl. bottle. Nice, roasty, soft and medium bodied stout which is quite carbonated (for an imperial stout to be). I don’t think it would be unreasonable to suggest that one should age this stout for a couple of years, and thereby this promising beer will carry the title: Imperial more appropriately.

Dec 19, 2007 Bottle at home ... Ive twice had samples of this but held of rating knowing ive got a bottle at home ... Having had 2 this evening that just didnt cut it i knew i wanted a nice safe beer ... Deep solid black ... off white head ... rich dark chocolate slightly smokey nose ... good mouth feel with a silky smooth milky chocolate base ... rich roast malts ... touch of burnt roast but at the level that complients the beer rather than lead the flavour.

Dec 18, 2007 Roasty fruitiness meets black molasses in a surprisingly full malt body for the brewery...Fine carbonation let’s plenty of room for the chocolate and lingering roasty bitterness.

Dec 16, 2007 330ml Bottle: Aroma is on the sweet side. Smells of chocolate, coffee, roasting, and cream. Poured black in color with a small beige head that diminished. No lacing. Flavor of chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, and cream. Medium body. Dry texture. Soft carbonation. Dry, malty, chocolate finish.

Dec 15, 2007 If balance is your thing (why not?), then a candidate for the best RIS. Black with little head. A bit of chocolate and medium plusmouthfeel, smooth, lightly spicey. Goes down beautifully. Satisfying aftertaste.

Dec 14, 2007 33 cl bottle, best before 2013? Dark brown with burgundy edges and a khaki head. Nose of coffee, molasses and peanut brittle. Medium light body, light carb. Coffee and plums gradually bitters. Solid but not Imperial.
