3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Big roast coffee malt and licorice aroma, just what you expect from a strong stout. It’s completely blacked out and pours crude oil. Tends way towards the sweet end of the spectrum, with some nut and maple elements blended in. Some bitterness, as the hops are present mainly in spirit. Very thick, one bottle is a meal.

Bottle. Pours almost pitch black in color with almost no head. The aroma is very roasty with lots of dark chocolate too. Taste starts off very roasty too but quickly turns very bitter with dark chocolate and coffee. Finish remains very bitter with a nice spicy hop hit too. Mouthfeel is pretty thick and chewy. This is a pretty extreme RIS and is a tad too intense for me to love it. I did still enjoy sipping this though.
