Commercial Description:
Jolly Roger himself smoked the malt for this Imperial Stout. This is a massive stout with a huge roasted maltiness and complex smoky, chocolate flavors coming through strong thanks to the gentle handpump and correct cellar temperature.

Bottle courtesy of adrian910ss. Pours a creamy deep ruby brown with a small medium brown head. Rich roasted malts, candy sugar, raisin, prune, and oak to the flavors and nose. Creamy and smooth mouth . Alcohol is well muted but definitely there.

On cask at Ottos Pub and Brewery. Pours murky, muddy dark chocolate brown colour with a barely there tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, and licorice. Flavour of alcohol, bitter chocolate, raisins, plums and a hint of smokiness.. Has a bitter aftertaste. Went straight to my head after drinking 2 pints of Phoenix Kriek.

Bottle. Pours thick, black, but not as thick as most RIS’s. Smoky aroma, which got more obvious as it warmed. Taste is of black licorice, darker fruit, hops, definitely sweet. A very nice surprise. Would love another bottle.
