Cask Stillage from the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 26/09/2009 (2008 Vintage) Big coffee roast aroma. Beige head. Black strong in alcohol and rich on the palate with a little bitterness in a dry hoppy chocolate and coffee roast finish.

Tap at GABF 2005. Pours a deep dark brownish almost black with a thin head. Aroma is very sweet- fruity esters along with a sharp dark crystal malt profile light nutty chocolate and almost no roasted barley. Flavor is also very sweet- too much crystal, lacking on the Roasted barley, no coffee, and low on the chocolate- herbal hops in the end. Meh.

Medium dark brown colored body with light easily shining through at the edges. Somewhat lactic on the tip of the tongue, and harsh as well, with a charred milk note, candied dark plum, cherry syrup and sweet cocoa. Hints at some cream in the middle but finished harsh and astringent.

Crushed with Jakebra at the brewpub. Why is this rated so low? Dark fruits, roast, booze, chocolate and vanilla on the nose. And awesomeness. Plenty of that. Flavor is sexy and the mouthfell might be the best I’ve had in any Imperial Stout. So thick and velvety. Unexpected and absolutely awesome.

2008. Look great, thick black and oily. Brown dissapating head. Weak aroma, dried fruit (maybe). Palate is smooth, not too coating but lingering. Taste of sweet fruit, molassas, alcohol and mocha. Not bad, however we have lefthand imperial stout down the streer and Ten Fidy on tap nearby.

On tap @ Pumphouse poured an opaque dark brown nearly black with a small lasting brown head. Aromas of dark fruit, bitter chocolate, carmel and light licorice. Palate was medium to full bodied smooth and warming. Flavors of milk chocolate, fruittiness, light vanilla and a hint of carmel with a smooth warming lingering bittersweet finish.

Very high alcohol. Thin-bodied. The aroma, palate, and taste all reveal roasted malts. Burnt brown sugar. Sweet like sherry.
