Black with a large tan head that left great lacing. Sweet and lactic with strong chocolate and cream and a hint of smoke. Long finish. Full bodied and silky smooth.

Rich and creamy, moderately sweet, notes of vanilla, roast, ash, mild booze, raisin, earth. Mellow warmth to finish, burnt caramel. Highly drinkable.

Poured from can blackish brown with a nice mocha head. Aroma is roasted malt chocolate vanilla Coffee. Taste is smooth creamy like chocolate milk vanilla caramel notes blend with coffee and dark fruit notes. Taste is almost like a milk stout which is not a bad thing. ABV is well hidden. Very nice beer.

Reviewed from notes.
Poured into a snifter, the appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a finger’s worth of eggshell white foamy head. Sliding lace.
The aroma had a lusciously sweet milk chocolate opening up into some dark chocolate tones. Nice level roastiness. Subtle coffee bean ebb and flow.
The flavor yields to the sweetness nicely. Roastiness is slightly there, but now some vanilla bean seems to be coming out. Sly cocoa bean to vanilla bean aftertaste leading into a quick malty finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a fair sipping quality about it. Nice carbonation. ABV felt just a tad under, but still some booziness could be noticed.
Overall, pretty good imperial stout. I wouldn’t mind trying this when they first released it. Surprised to see the carbonation held up.
