So this beer was a surprising gem I found. It was very tasty. Aroma had hints of maple and roasted grains. The taste was out of this world. I only bought one and I can't find anymore. It would have been a great cellar beer.

Imperial stout from Alabama, can shared with Steve at Bar Beenhouwer, Ghent. Very thick and foamy, mocha beige head over a pitch black beer. Aroma of black coffee, Cuban cigars, lots of bitter (unsugared) black chocolate, bonfire, salmiak, charcoal, charred steak, even smoked bacon. Sweetish and lightly sourish onset, some light umami, hints of burnt blackcurrants and dried dates, medium carbonated with a full, oily body; thick walnutty and bitter-chocolatey main flavour, layers of black and eventually roasted bitter, coffeeish to even somewhat ashy maltiness, spiced with a smoky note and peppery hop bitterness, before a warming, whisky-like alcohol glow sets in; bittersweet coffee-like roastiness lingers for a long time, qualifying this one as quite an old school imperial stout, which has become increasingly rare especially in the States in the past ten years or so. Bold and powerful, just a bit on the crude side perhaps, but with some refinement, this could be a stout of high class.
