Sep 14, 2006 Bottle on 9/9/06. Opaque black/brown pour supports a lasting brown head. Aroma of coffee and dark roasted malts. Medium body, light carbonation. Flavor is predominately bitter with contributions from dark malts as well as citrus hops. Bitter finish. A drinkable good Impy Stout.

Sep 6, 2006 Received from BeerSwap 2.0. Poured into a snifter. Opaque black with ample ligh brown head. Aroma is sweet milk chocolate with some coffee notes. Taste has a Hershey’s Syrup quality. I like it. Sweet, smokey, bitter finish. Light on the palate. Not what we normally equate to imperial, but I’ll give this on a pass. I like it.

Aug 20, 2006 (22oz bottle) Small tan head atop brown-black body. Aroma is medium sweet, chocolate, coffee, roast. Taste is moderately sweet, chocolate, coffee, roast, some smoke, caramel, earthy. Alcohol is remarkably masked. Creamy medium-full body, light syrup, quite drinkable for the style. Seems like a summery IS, if such a thing exists.

Aug 8, 2006 Completely black pour, little to no brownish head. Nice roasted chocolate, malty aroma. Very nice coffee flavor in this beer. Very smooth, a bit thinner then an imperial should be. Don’t get me wrong, this is not thin, but not as full bodied as it should be. Still a very good beer.

Jun 28, 2006 pours black with very little light tan head. aroma is full of roasted malt, cashews, peanuts, and molasses. The flavor is heavy on the molasses and roasted malt, with a touch of alfalfa sprouts and lots of nutty flavors as well. the obvious chocolate, dark roast coffee, and some acidity accompany these flavors.
