Green with silver glitter Wax
Dark Lord is a gargantuan Russian Style Imperial Stout, with a reverse cascading head that starts out billowing the color of burnt oil like the Dark Lord rising from the black primordial beginnings. Its resonant vinous aroma has been described as cherries, sweet malt, molasses, burnt currants, plums with a port wine alcohol undertow. Mochachino notes buried within. Motor oil consistency, hellishly smooth yet divinely burnt and vinous. The first sip coats your palate with a palatial charred fruit and chocolate blanket. Alcohol burn wiggles its way down your throat with a thick body

Past brewmaster's recommended cellaring age of five years, but still very good. Notes of coconut, roast, dates, cocoa, dark malt and a bare hint of coffee. Full bodied and smooth. A bit of booze at the end.
