Bottle at home. Pours a nice black with a thick head. Aroma is very classic Imperial stout. Lots of dark malts, chocolate and coffee, lots of roasted barley, maybe some licorice and figs. Big body. Flavour is balanced and sweetish, with a big malt body. Lots of bitterness and roastiness balances sweetness. Coffee and chocolate notes, mostly general roast flavours. Not overly complex but a superbly done classic Imperial stout with very good drinkability.

1/3 pint draft @ Howling Hops. Brune foncée, col léger blanc-cassé, dorée au verre. Arôme malté chocolaté et grillé avec un léger effet poudreux grains. Le tout est correct toujours dans la lignée des stouts impériales. Palais met directement l'abv en avant, malté, caramel avec un fini chocolaté, le tout sur un petit côté de réglisse. Un peu soja au fini touche de feuille de tabac et fruits noirs pur un fini un peu sec et cendre. Collant aux lèvres sur la fin, sec, avec un léger fini amer. Correcte un peu monodimensionnelle.
