Bottle. Pours dark brown-black with a moderate dark-brown head. Aroma is roast malt, with a hint of sweetness, and some dark-fruit notes. Flavor is fairly ashy roast malt, enough to add an overall acidity, with some dark fruits and a little offsetting sweetness. Possibly some other spices I can’t make out amidst that. Note: this is much better if allowed to slightly warm up from refrigerator temperature; at fridge temp it’s mostly roast malt and little else that’s noticeable. Even when warmer it’s still a very roasty and somewhat strange example of an imperial stout; almost more like a roasty doppelbock than an imperial stout, come to think of it. But fairly good overall.
