| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Dec 21, 2008 Can...Pours a deep black hue with a big, frothy tan-brown head. Aromas of...yes....whoppers, chocolate, a touch of cream, and cooked oats..Im getting excited. Mouth feel is full bodied with a semi dry finish. Flavors of toasted oatmeal, a nice hop bitterness, but a lingering alcohol finish. Might be a little too cold right now. As it warms, the whoppers really come through. Amazing. One of the most unique impy stouts Ive had in a while .... kenb (1101), Oregon, USA

Pours thick thick black with a large brown head. Very nice aroma..pure Mocha. Ummm, ok i have a new favorite. Wow this is hard to put into words. It is everything you expect from a great Imp Stout without any of the typical negatives. Purfect amount of roastiness, chocolate, coffee, vanilla...a little bit of licorice. I swear i even detect some hazlenut and almonds in there somewhere. Medium carbonation. Full body, thick chewy mouthfeel. Awesome Awesome Awesome. boboski (1095), Alabama, USA

The amazing thing about the appearance is how inviting it looks. The aroma is distinctly new school imperial stout style. Coffee is foremost and pounding. Nuances of barrel, vanilla, chocolate, burnt malts, piney and mildly acidic hops, fruits galore but restrained in unison by the onslaught of roastiness and chocolate, not to mention the menacing fresh coffee. Flavor is again huge coffee, much like the nose indicated. The roast is monstrous now, accompanied by silky sweet chocolate, anise, buttery malts and dark fruit, mostly blackberries. The palate is ridiculously accomodating, very full and smooth, coating, creamy and delightfully medium dry. Finishes very dry, leaving behind a touch of bitter chocolate and cherry sweetness. Too many hops presently, will probably be phenomenal if laid down for awhile. Excellent IS from a wonderful brewery. BREWMUSKCLES (1094), New Jersey, USA
