Bottle thanks to Manny G. It pours darkest black with a decent tan head. The nose is rich, creamy roast, vanilla, nougat, honeycomb and dark chocolate. The taste is toasty, rich roast, bitter-sweet, creamy, vanilla, toasted coconut, chocolate and warming alcohol through the finish. Medium - full body, moderate carbonation and slick mouth-feel. Well rounded heavy duty imperial quaffing stout.
