Pours black with a small light brown diminishing head. Smells of alcohol and toasted malts. Sweet and slightly bitter with aromas of dark chocolate, prunes, wood and tobacco. Full bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. Also some minerals. Metallic, bitter finish.

Bottled. A pitch black beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is slightly oxidized combined with notes of over ripe fruits and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, malt, and bread, but also with a slight touch of oxidation combined with a light hop bite.

Bottle. A black beer with a big brown head. The aroma is of roasted malt, chocolate, light coffee, rye bread and alcohol, so is the taste. Medium body with a dry finish.

Bottle: Black, tan head, nice lacing. Nose of roast and vegetal hops, some astringency and dry cocoa, licorice and some dirty snake skin notes. The flavor is sharp and filled with bitter coffee oil. Lots of yeast and alcohol and hops.

500ml bottle from dsnowden, thank you! aroma is roasted malt, cinnamon, milk chocolate, and slight alcohol. Flavour is lots of rasted malt, coffee, and slight fruitness. A Nice stout, but kinda thin for an imperial. Not bad though.
