Bottle. Brown-red color. Big white head. Smells sweet choclate. Fruity and choclaty taste. Roasted flavors, but in a much sweeter way comparing to your regular imperial stout.

A very creamy stout with a strong maltiness with a chocolaty element. Instantly one of my favorites.

On draught. Deep ruby with scant brown head. Aroma of chocolate-flavored coffee. Taste of roasted malt and almonds, toffee late. Roasted chestnut finish, quite long-lasting. Good one, should age quite well.

Hazy red-brown pour with a thin light tan head. Strong fruit flavor with cherries and chocolate. Some earthy rubbery funk with hints of bourbon. Very flavorful with chocolate, nuts, and fruit. Dry with wet leather earthy flavor. Under carbonated and flat.
