tertons (100), East Providence, Rhode Island, USA Jun 15, 2008 Updated: Jun 16, 2008 Thanks Kmweaver. I prefer the BB over the regular. In all ways balanced and not overdoing either a too dry or sweet flavor, but just perfect in the mixture of coffee and sugar. Heavy and creamy body that is soft and attractive to the palate and flavor. This intense dark Imperial settles with a minimal head on the impressive dark body.
JMFG (1140), Florida, USA Aug 23, 2008 On tap @ Stone, RBSG. Stark black pour, light tan head that dissipates quickly. The aroma is surprisingly balanced between bourbon, oak, roast, and alcohol, none of them overpowering. The barrel is more apparent in the taste, but still allows the chocolate and roast, plus some vanilla, to come through. Creamy palate. Excellent. jsh12bama (215), Alabama, USA Aug 23, 2008 Draft @ Stone bistro. Pours motor oil black with thick tan head. Aroma of chocolate, bourbon, and oak. Taste of bouron, chocolate, and vanilla. Nice thick, creamy mouthfeel. Was expecting a lot and it met my expectations. cgort (52), mission viejo, California, USA Aug 9, 2008 MAN! Talk about an awesome beer! I had this on tap from the world bistro. It was a 2003 bourbon. This beer was super complex with a definite wood flavor. Everyone who loves beer should try this one... maybe even wine drinkers! The palate was just right and was actually a bit lighter than I would have thought. This is a super black beer with a FANTASTIC overall impression. pepsican (727), the beer wastelands of, Iowa, USA Aug 8, 2008 This made a great friday morning breakfast. Thanks to wetherel for the hand bottle. Black pour with thin tan head. Heavy chocolate in the aroma, with oak, bourbon, and alcohol rounding it out. Flavor was much less sweet and bourbony than the aroma lead on. Smoke, tobacco, some chocolate, toffee, bourbon, and vanilla. Thick boozy finish. Very nice. yespr (6400), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 7, 2008 From tap at Stone Bistro. Pours pitch black with a short lasting head. Sweet fruity and dense roasted malt aroma. Flavour is fruity, dense caramel and mild chocolate. Holds a nice note of vanilla too. Warming alchol finish.
