Apr 6, 2008 Draft... Pitch black with a small, creamy, beige head. Great retention. The aroma is of coffee and chocolate with touches of caramel, vanilla and charcoal. Medium to full-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Burnt and bitter with blackstrap molasses. Finishes a touch thin and crisp. Thanks to juiceisloose for buying the pint!

Mar 21, 2008 Pours a deep black with a thick off white head. The aroma is hoppy with dry chocolate coffee malt. A hoppy dry chocolate malt taste with a thin porter like body. Finishes dry with a bitter hop finish. Very nice.

Mar 21, 2008 Draft at Redlight Redlight. Pours a dark mahogany brown body. A foamy, dark khaki head leaves solid sheets of lacing all the way down the glass. The aroma is big and malty, almost like a Baltic Porter, but sufficiently hoppy at the same time. Chocolate, nougat, caramel, raisons and figs are accompanied by a good deal of roast on the nose. Flavors follow suit, with the sweet but roasty malts meeting big, earthy hops. The body is nearly full, and comes off almost chewy. Finishes with bitter roast and a somewhat sticky mouthfeel. Solid brew.

Feb 29, 2008 Tap at public house in Portland... Opaque black with a thin brown head. Faint malt and sugary aroma. Smooth mellow palate that hugged your tongue. Straight up chocolate and
malt flavors up front with a warming licorice-like alcohol and subtle hops for balance. This us very impressive and delicious.

Feb 9, 2008 draft @ portland public house - served in the monster imperial goblet; jet black with thin texture and slight head only around the edges; aromas of slightly roasted malts, but more bitter and hint of alcohol; drinks much stronger than its listed 7.8% and thought the waitress said it was over 11%; also that it was aged in jack daniels barrels; either way, not a smooth drinking imperial porter by any means; jack daniels gave it an obvious and uneven bite; pretty disappointing
