Aug 7, 2007 Bottle from Footbalm - Thanks! Pours a dark brown/near black with a small tan head. Nose is intense with chocolate, coffee, and roast. Taste is consistent, but a bit light when compared to the aroma. Has a little bittersweet cocoa feel too.

Aug 5, 2007 Note: as of writing this, the bottle was purchased nearly one year ago.
Appearance: Pours a black body with a small brown head.
Smell: Aroma of dark chocolate with notes of vanilla and caramel and only a faint, faint bit of fruitiness and pine lurking beneath the maltiness.
Taste: A tasty, sweet mixture of high-percentage cocoa dark cocolate and crème de menthe, like a liquefied Andes mint. The finish is sweet and roasty, with a nice anise flavor lingering into the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel.
Drinkability: A delightful stout fresh and even moreso a year later.

Taste was nice and bitter...coffee bitter with dark chocolate and a little roasted malt in the back. Nice thick mouthfeel with good carbonation.

Jul 29, 2007 Very, very nice! A well rounded Imperial stout offering with a distinctive front taste and relatively smooth aftertaste. Highlights of chocolate notes are there if focused on. Alcohol is blended well. Enjoyed from 12 oz. bottle that was aged slighltly under 1 year. Very nice indeed!

Jul 28, 2007 Pours an opaque black into the snifter. There was a big tan head and the perfect touch of lacing. The scent was of malt, chocolate, coffee, roasted barley and nuts. The taste was very malty with the perfect touch of chocolate and espresso. There was a curious metallic? hint in the back, that didn’t sit too well on the palate. Overall, a very nice, drinkable Imperial stout.
