I had it from a cask and it is an excellent example of an imperial stout.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 3/20
beer poured with a nice head,good co2bite,with hintsof roasty maltz,and chocolet,but was over powered by the green apple aroma 1/18 I had this the other night out of a bottle and it was fantastic nice maltiness ,with aton of hop flavor,and aroma,and not a but load of green apples,

Interesting expample of Imperial Stout style, strong notes of coffee over a roasted malt finishing with an uniquely American (Cascade) hop finnish. Excellent beer, and don’t let the price fool you, six of these will complete your evening far, far better than any twelve for the same price.

Strong coffee like hues give this stout a good depth.
4.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Excellent full bodied beer....very similar to the Anderson Valley and Rogue Choc. Stout. I guess it’s pretty high in alcohol content because I can still feel it 3 hours later!

UPDATED: APR 13, 2004 Simply America's best stout. At least of the one's that I've had. Strong and powerful with burnt taste like a fine french roast with some Hennesey XO added. Enjoy!
re-rate (4/12/04) Way too hoppy and far from America's best stout. Really good but a little thin for the style.

The creamy head dissapates into a glass of chocolate,orgasmic intensity.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: SEP 28, 2007 Very rich, very black, roasty and burnt. Outstanding! Tobacco and erarth, tarry finish.

UPDATED: JUN 28, 2007 This full bodied brew w/ its chocolate & espresso flavors is wonderful. It is a well balanced beer. Very enjoyable.

One of the best examples of an Imperial Stout commercially available. Not the best, but damn good. A beer to be savored.
