Sep 11, 2009 1pt 6oz bottle. Pours thick dark brown with very little head. Smells of creamy coffee and dark fruit. Tastes of dark coffee with creamer, roasted malt, milk chocolate, and alcohol. Nice and sweet up front and gets slightly bitter in the finish. Pretty good beer, but for the price, Rogue’s Chocolate Stout is way better and half the price.

Sep 7, 2009 Bomber. Pours deep black, very nice tan head. Good lacing. Lots of coffee, chocolate, toasted malt. Alcohol is well hidden for 11%. A very enjoyable IMP Stout.

Sep 7, 2009 2008 bomber... pours a nice black with a smooth quarter inch tan head... which eventually falls to a thin lacing... some big coffee notes as well as a touch of chocolate and sweet roasted malts on the nose... big mouthfeel with roasted malt, oats and dark coffee up front... developing into a robust stout filled with licorice and sweet candi sugar on the finish.... the 12% is well hidden... full bodied, well balanced and extremely delicious. top notch coffee imp stout...

Sep 5, 2009 Bottled. Pitch black coloured. Small brown fluffy head. Sweetness, chocolate, coffee, roast and brown sugar in the aroma. Flavour of roast, brown sugar, syrup, chocolate/caramel. coffee and liqourice. Is quite creamy. Quite thin bodied. ends on a chocolaty and roasty sweet bitterness. Quite nice.

Sep 4, 2009 Pours a dark nearly black brown with the briefest of brown heads. Rich, chocolaty aroma, molasses - yum! Chocolate & molasses plus plenty of light coffee - milky mocha, not at all acidic espresso. Unrefined sugar, too. Tasty, tasty tasty! Minimal carbonation, medium body. Sweet and delicious, a dessert of a beer!

Aug 27, 2009 Another great offering from the Blackwater line. Perfect opaque, near-black pour. No light shining through when held to the light. Smells....like a cup of coffee. Slightly stronger smell...more bite. Toffee scent and flavor too. Flavor is interesting...not as sweet as I was expecting (not that it’s a bad thing). Love the bitter taste....like a cup of pitch black coffee. Very good overall...right up there with the rest of their line.

Aug 25, 2009 Pours pitch black with a foamy coffee-colored head that settles into a lasting lacing. Roasted coffee aroma with chocolate maltiness, toffee, caramel, sweet alcohol, hops and candi sugar. Very quaffable with the ABV very well hidden. I can’t believe this beer is 12%. Roasted coffee dominated the flavor with choclate malt, caramel, toffee, oatmeal and candi sugar notes and a sweet alcohol and dry hoppy finish. Sooo smooth.

Aug 24, 2009 Tap at McGrath’s. Coffee flavor was somewhat subdued, although I just finished the Creme Brule so maybe I just couldnt taste it. Pretty good but not outstanding.
