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 shared at Butter’s Big Cellar Blowout. Last of the evening. Nice and smokey. Black pour with light tan head and some lacing. Aroma of creme brulle, roasty, chocolate, vanilla. Flavor is a surprise of smoke, bourbon, roast. What a nice beer.

Bottle at Butters Big Cellar Blowout. Pours a light brown head with a dark brown body. Smells of coffee, toast, and cheese. Tastes of caramelized malt and some coffee. Finish has a touch of bitterness.

Bottle from CaptainCougar. Thanks again for this and all the other great beers. Pours opaque black with a multfinger reddish tan head. Aromas of chocolate and dark fruit. Near full bodied with creamy carbonation. Heat is mildly detectable. Flavor is dark fruit, coffee, chocolate, maybe cherry. Lots going on here. Takes awhile, but some smokiness arrives. Finishes more dry than sweet. Much more. It’s a really good drink.

Bottle thanks to travita. Nose is meat, booze, chocolate, cherry and coffee. Taste is the same. THick mouthfeel and medium long finish. Good.
