Scotch Irish John By Imperial Stout

really like this beer a lot. pours black with dark beige frothyness. Chocolate on the nose. Amazing flavour. Dark chocolate with coffee. roasted flavour with only slightest bitterness. Awesome with dark chocolate cake. One of my favs thus far

Courtesy TheCheeseMan. Black pour with a thin broken layer of light tan head. Ton of chocolate and powdered cocoa on the aroma, some nuttiness. Great aroma. Some oak/tannic astringency, a little chocolate, light hop and alcohol burn on the finish. Mild in some ways, aggressive in others, but definitely quality. Interesting brew.

Aroma of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, liquorice and burnt toast, black, small firm cappuccino head, pretty lace and a bit oily too. Meidum bodied, very well balanced, terrificly bitter. Wonderful! Kudos Perry on Your last beer with this brewery. Hope to see You rise again soon like a phoenix.

341ml bottle, with thanks to HogTownHarry for this great bonus! Pours a dark brown/black with a two finger dark tan head, moderate lacing. Aroma is cocoa, espresso, and dark roasted malts. Flavor is more of the same, with a lot of bitter roast lingering that interestingly transitions into citrus. Not a lot of complexity, but enjoyable. Thanks again Harry!

(3/1/08) A bottle (brought by jerc) sample shared by duff at Zythos Bier Festival 2008 in Sint Niklaas. Black color with a brown head. Strong aroma of roasted malt and lots of dark chocolate. Nice roasted sweet flavor. Medium to full-bodied.
