PilsnerPeter (2586), Flushing, New York, USA Jan 22, 2009 Bottle shared by Dickinsonbeer: Pours opaque with a thick lasting brown head. Thick and tarry aroma. Burnt graham crackers, espresso, caramelized brown sugar underneath (but not very sweet) Slick feel with a great flavor. Lightly sweet upfront with a molasses suggestion- which smooth transitions to tons of soft black malt, lightly charred and roasted flavors and a smooth light inky bitterness. Really and awesome easy going Stout. grandgenie (252), gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jan 21, 2009 Dégusté avec agakuk et acheté à la LCBO et dégusté dans un verre tulipe du 10e anniversaire de dieu du ciel. Bière d’une apparence noir intense au collet de mousse brun foncé. Odeur dominante d’amande grillé, de pain brûlé, de caramel et de fudge avec une fiinale de lactose comme dernier élément olfactif. Une bière au goût de chocolat, de malt caramélisé et de réglisse avec une bonne gazéfication. Équilibre et rondeur édéniable, une bonne magie et expérience de dégustation. Nous avons ici de l’innatendu car c’est dans les petit pôt que nous trouvons les meilleurs onguents. Agaguk (119), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jan 21, 2009 Shared with Grand Genie. Black with a nice creamy brown head and very nice lacing. Aroma: fudge, dark chocolate, roasted almonds, a light smell of burnt toast and lactose, caramel. Flavvor: licorice, creamy chocolate, molasses, fudge. Palate: full body and a creamy texture , fizzy carbonation with an oily finish. Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA Jan 20, 2009 Bottle. Lasting tan head atop a pitch black body. Flavor has a bit of lavendar to perfectly complement the toasty maltiness. Really smooth with a nice creaminess. mannika (98), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 14, 2009 341mL stubby. Pours a deep brown with a thin brown head. Aroma is of roasted malt, toast, coffee, with a bit of mocha. Taste is unexpected - a bit of a sweet fruity taste with the bitter coffee-like finish. Very interesting and tasty. TheEpeeist (1430), Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 6, 2009 341 ml bottle. Ebony with a tan haze. Nose is coffee and chocolate pudding with touches of hay and smoke. Medium body with a tingle. Taste is bittersweet chocolate, leafy greens, molasses and Greek coffee. Well done. Beerman6686 (1266), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 3, 2009 This poured an almost black color with a thin light tan head. Aroma was of lots of chocolate, and some coffee. Flavor was very disappointing, lots of weird soy sauce notes and sourish tastes. Reminded me alot of Sam Adams Triple Bock chops (60), Brantford, Ontario, Canada Jan 2, 2009 341ml bottle from the LCBO. Great beer. Lots of butterscotch, chocolate and coffee flavors that I love in an imperial stout.
