Bottle shared at a tasting, 4/27/15. Clear dark brown, thin fizzy ran head, decent retention. Aroma of roasted malts and chocolate. The taste is roasted malt, chocolate, bitter hops, mild smoke.Thin-medium bodied, low carbonation, lingering bitterness.

Another disappointment from Back East. Thinner than most Imperial Stouts out there. Coffee and dark chocolate in the aroma and flavor, but a really heavy booze burn in the nose and tongue. Nothing very interesting or well crafted here.

750 ml bottle from Worldwide Wine Cellars, Tolland, CT. Snifter shows a nice tan head with massive retention, laced the entire way down. Nose is earthy malts and English type hops. The flavor reminds me of a huge ABV English stout. Charred chocolate malt, hints of coffee grounds with an ashy texture. Again I get and earthy malt taste the yells out to me, "drink me on cask" huge amounts of ash that lingers after the sip. NERAX would love to serve this during one of their exhibitions. Not bad by any means but it is real thin in body. Could use more depth in flavor.

Thanks chris for sharing this one. shared 2 ways in a snifter.
A - Black, brown edges
S - Smells bitter and full of woodiness, sort of an undertone figs.
T - Creamy, bitter, a strange orange and clove with coriander.roasted marshmallows, almonds and coffee.
M - Thin light creamy texture. sort of a porter mouthfeel
O - Very english, slightly creamy, had a very clean finish. this is a solid beer..would be great by the pint on cask. seriously.

750ml bottle. Poured a dark black brew. Roasted notes in this one. Roasted malts and a touch of coffee notes. Roasted malts, some light chocolates. This was pretty good.
