Bottle thanks to Onkelgobber. Appearance - opaque black with a nice fluffy fawn head. Nose - toffee and nuts rather than chocolate. Praline. Taste - more of the same with a blackjack liquorice edge that makes it balanced Palate - close to full bodied, big tangy yet dry roasty texture and a long dry finish. Overall -lovely and luscious.

Bottle from Torvenhallerne. Pours nearly black with only a few brown bubbles as head, some lacing though. Nice subtle aroma of mildly roasted hops with caramel, vanilla, some chocolate, brown sugar, vaguely fruity. Can’t find any hops. The taste is very sweet, with just a bit of roasted bitterness. Smooth, creamy palate. Easy to drink, but a bit too straightforward and lacks of character.

Pours a dark brown colour with a frothy-creamy beige head that lasts a while, giving patchy creamy-foam lacing. Big aromas of chocolate and cocoa at first pour. Then, notes of vanilla-oak, toffee, roasted malts and hints of nuts. The flavours are mostly on the roasted malt side, with a little coffee and cocoa. Also some alcohol felt. Pretty good overall, but nothing too complex in the mouth section. A nice sipper.

Smell of tar, licorice, some cocoa. Dark brown colour, very high white head. Aroma of vanilla, licorice, coffee, some pepper. Bitter, also surprisingly sweet. Rich but very soft carbon, velvety but also oily texture. Rich body. Could be even more bitter, but really well balanced also as such.

(bottle) dark brown colour with a tall brown head; aroma starts with alcohol and smoked fruit, then roast; simple flavour with alcohol being the prominent feature - this is the worst imperial stout I have ever had and the first ever that I was not able to even finish - very disappointing

Bottle. Black beer, small white moussy head. Aroma of burned malt and cacao. Oily mouthfeel, thick body. Taste of moccha, chocolate and some licorice. Some oak and vanilla in the aftertaste. Solid imperial stout.

Bottle from the LCBO. Deep brown with a small dark tan head that lingers. Very prominent dark chocolate nose with coffee, vanilla, and light dark fruits. Dry medium bitterness throughout dominated by the chocolate with lots of roast and a light plum tartness and a light sweetness appearing in the finish. A bit of woodiness appears as it warms and smooths things out. Mouth is medium full and creamy with medium carbonation.

Bottle at home. Over 3 years old. Pours a deep red brown to black colour with a medium, creamy, beige head. Lots of chocolate truffles in the aroma along with, coffee, chocolate cake, ash, alcohol and roasted malt and hints of vanilla. More roasted malt in the flavour and with more chocolate, and a ash-like finish. Has a silky mouth feel, and a light to medium bitterness. An imperial stout with a lot of chocolate, but the flavour is not as complex as expected. A solid IS anyway.
