Oskar Blues Ten FIDY

Can. Pours a viscous jet black, and coming from the can, does look like motor oil. Thick dense chocolate head which falls off steadily. Fruit – with a big pineapple and mango tone interestingly enough, chocolate, roast, vanilla. Smooth, medium bodied, hides the abv remarkably well. Devils foodcake and chocolate pudding on the finish. Really tasty.

At a tasting, many thanks David, oily pour, almost no head, opaque very extremely dark brown colour, flavours of coffe, nuts, dried fruits, flavours of medium roasted coffee, porcini mushrooms, toasted brea,d brown sugar and hints of tobbaco. Big bodied and very sweet but still very good.

Had the 10:50 all over the place, most recently on tap at Uber. Pours black as night and out of a can, just like motor oil.

This is a thick thick beer. Its the thickest beer i’ve ever seen. If there was ever a beer to make a beer float with... this is it. But as a beer alone, .... skip it in my opinion. It is so dark and rich... its for the espreso crowd. I think if I enjoyed espreso i’d love this beer. thick dark, malty, dark chocolate, coffee.

What are you waiting for? C’mon you know you want it. Take a big thick 8-inch slice of extra-moist and dense triple-layer dark chocolate cake with dark chocolate ganache frosting. Slap it on a cheap paper plate accompanied with a flimsy plastic fork and then... Go get a can of this sludge, and while making a visibly flamboyant display, crack it open and serve it to your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife/friend in cheap plastic solo cups; just to show them who’s their daddy. With Ten FIDY you don’t have to be cool.

Pour is blacker than night, with a beautiful khaki head that sticks around. Big malt nose, touch of noble hops spice. A big, meaty, creamy palate slips easily down. Flavors of chocolate malt, cocoa, dried plum. After swallowing, the lingering flavors develop into a roasty nuttiness. So smooth, no alcohol heat - hard to believe in a beer over 9%. Beautiful. Among the very best Imperial Stouts.

Canned. Black as black gets, pours like oil. Chocolate brown head, with orange hue. Aroma is BIG starting with roasted burnt chocolate, variety of citrus, cider notes, vanilla and more hops than you’d expect from a stout. Also not very much coffee like other stouts, only a little bit. Flavor is roasted chocolate, orange peel, a little also like cider as in scent. Overwhelming. Palate is full bodied and very well balanced. Smooth finish.

pours thick black oil, thick mocha head with lingering golden lacing. Aroma of roasted malts, some bitter chocolate and toffee. Flavor, malty, plenty of chocolate, mocha/milky some roast, warming abv with light bitter chocolate finish. Boozy mouthfeel with some peppery notes and dark fruits.Light bitter pine finish.
