Black ok head for a imperial stout. The aroma has Coffee, and chocolate also found in the tase. I like the Palate slightly oily and smooth and then a warm aftertaste and fell.
A nice porter...

Sampled at an ESBLS tasting. It poured a dark brown color with a tan head. The aroma was notes of cola, chocolate, dark fruit and roastiness. The taste was creamy, with a hint of chocolate, some lactose, coffee beans and other dark fruits. Very nice.

Sample at a tasting. Strong smell of chocolate but also some dark malty bread. Similar taste. Some malty sweetness that stays in your mouth for a while, but it doesn’t feel too sweet.

Keg at North Bar, Leeds. Pours an inky black with a ruby tinge, thin layer of foam. Aroma is cherry bakewell, milky, perfume, hints of coffee, cinnamon, and a little booze. Taste is surprisingly rather subtle, definite cherry in there, red fruits, milky/creamy, with a nice smack of bitter coffee on the finish. Medium-full body, low carb. Something seems missing overall, but this is still very good - a nice, relatively subtle imperial porter.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Muddy brown with a small tan head. Nose is lightly tart, vinous, some roast, ash, cocoa. Similar flavor, slightly acidic mouthfeel, light smoke, red fruits, roast. Not quite as bad as I remember it but still not worth the money.
