Jun 22, 2008 Near black colored with red hints, medium sized beige head. Roasted and chocolaty aroma with mild vanilla and oak tones, hops also here. Medium to full bodied, challencing IS with strong hops. Flavor also starts with sweet roastiness and mild vanilla, hops come up in aftertaste. Not too balanced with sweetness in start and strongly dry aftertaste with slight alcohol.

Jun 21, 2008 Draught @ Novare Res 6/18/08. I have enjoyed this in bottle as well. Beautiful. My favorite widely available Imperial Stout. Thick bitter creamy complex. Perfection.

Jun 21, 2008 Drank with Bigmmartin at Boston’s and it did take forever to get this beer on tap. The head was almost like whipped cream. Worth the wait. Chocolate and espresso aroma with a nice bitter-sweet ratio. Thick/creamy mouthfeel and a good bitter finish. A treat.

Jun 20, 2008 On tap at Boston’s Bistro & Pub in Dayton. First time I’ve tried this beer on tap, and I thought it was excellent. The pour takes a few minutes because of the huge head that refuses to subside. It’s extremely dark with an off white, light brown head that just hangs around forever. The aroma and flavor is a mixture of coffee and chocolate. A wonderful viscosity and extremely enjoyable.

Jun 19, 2008 Pours very thick dark black color with booming tan head that lasts. Great aroma of chocolate, dark fruits, coffee and a little alcohol. Excellent robust flavors, chocolate malts and a nice coffee and hop bitterness at the finish. Creamy body with a lasting delicious aftertaste.

Jun 19, 2008 Updated: Jul 27, 2008Huge, full bodied initial flavor loaded with an excellent balance of hops and malt. Chocolate and coffee malt flavor. Kind of a piney hop flavor that I did not expect. Not much sweetness, no alcohol taste. Long lingering, lightly bitter finish. Somehow it remains highly drinkable.

Jun 19, 2008 This is an excellent ImpStout. It pours deep chocolate color with notes of dark chocolate, slight dark fruit, and some alcohol in the aroma. The flavor is chocolatey with coffee and a tang of hops in the finish. Heavy on the mouthfeel with lots of chocolate malt. It is an excellent addition to a beer style I don’t norammly love.

Jun 19, 2008 Nice nearly black pour and nice dark head. Aroma is full of chocolate, coffee and almost camp fire roasted smell. Taste is the same and heavy, with some bitterness. My favorite Imperial Stout so far.
