Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Mar 6, 2009 Very dark pour. The high alcohol content is masked by a nice coffee flavor. Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Mar 5, 2009 12 ounce bottle. This is a damn fine looking beer. As dark as a beer can beer and it smelled just like a fresh cup of coffee. Very delicious some chocolate to go with the coffee and some nice malt aftertaste really well done beer would buy again whartonbrewer (30), , Pennsylvania, USA Mar 3, 2009 A great stout. Pours thick and rich - nose of chocolate and mahogany. Wonderful blend of smoky alcohol. Flavor is of burnt nuts. Great beer! Will be coming back for more. zapprentice (309), East Setauket, New York, USA Mar 2, 2009 Aroma strong of coffee. Chocolate and coffee power straight through the tongue. Gets more intense as it warms. Definitely a nice buy Noelweichbrodt (11), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Mar 1, 2009 From the bottle, I poured an inky black glass with a decent caramel head. Not a lot in the aroma, though I’ve been a little stopped up of late. But once it hits the mouth, man, a pounding of chocolate, hop, caramel & vanilla malts, smoke, oatmeal. What a way to go. Finish is smooth for a stout, let alone an Imperial stout, and leaves a nice lingering chocolate and vanilla in your mouth. angrypirate06 (678), Texas, USA Feb 28, 2009 Bottle. Smoky notes, with chocolate and coffee. Little to no head. Nice syrupy mouth feel. Tastes of smoke, chocolate and coffee. njbfr (105), New Jersey, USA Feb 27, 2009 Black as night with a thick tan head. Nose is sort of roasted oat malt, very pleasant. Extremely complex flavor with notes of roasted oat, chocolate, coffee with a very mellow bitter finish. Slight alcohol taste on the finish. Warming, which would be perfect for a cold night. Very impressive. BroSpud (584), , Massachusetts, USA Feb 25, 2009 12oz Bottle. $2.95 Julio’s Liquors. One of the better stouts out there. Nice dark velvety goodness. Very little alcohol taste despite a 9% ABV.
