Feb 2, 2007 Bottle sampled on 7/2/06 thanks to sk8viking: Pours a barely transparent dark brown with a thin-lacing wispy tan head. Aroma of sweet dark caramel malt and lots of smoky character along with a touch of dark fruitiness. Body has lots of pleasant sweet dark caramel maltiness and mild dark fruity notes with a drier smoky finish. Very well-balanced and enjoyable, just not as "imperial" as it probably should be.

Jan 28, 2007 Draught. Deep dark brown colour with a nice big creamy off-white long lasting head. Aroma of well roasted malts, coffee and chocolate. Strong flavour of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, dark fruits, bitter hops. Bit smoky bitter finish. TASTY brew indeed!

Jan 20, 2007 Bottle. Almost pitch-black with an initially fizzy head. This settles as a centimeter of creamy offwhite cream. Aroma is surprisingly sweet, lots of chocolate - the sweetness is slightly fruity. Nice mouthfeel. Slightly vinious. Low carbonated. Roasted malts, chocolate, some coffee, ginger and this lingering fruity sweetness. Great!
