Taster shared with George. Appearance: dark brown with a weak beige head. Aroma: lots of toasted cinnamon, some barrel notes, no coffee detected over cinnamon, lol. Taste: along the same lines, very fruity and a bit sour. Overall: very cinnamon forwarded beer, good for this spice lovers.

On tap at The Beer Junction, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of cinnamon upfront, followed by vanilla and cocoa - not a huge amount of barrels. Flavour is intense, with silky smooth cinnamon and vanilla upfront, followed by cocoa and a touch of whiskey. Complex and smooth. Wonderful.

Draught @ ES. Dark brown. Big cinnamon and light vanilla on the nose. Thick, rich, vanilla, chocolate, my kind of dessert stout.

Draft - Big bourbon and cinnamon. Jet black with a decent light brown head. Sweet, chocolate and cinnamon with a ton of vanilla and bourbon. Toasted coconut in the finish. Do a brutally big beer, decent balance.

Draft pour at Hop and Hound. I was so excited when I saw this beer. First thought was the idea of comparing it to the Coffee Cinnamon BBomb. Was hoping for a serious contender, and I honestly think we have one. Not really surprised. Skookum has been a sneaky favorite of mine, and a name that I mention during my travels. If they had a taproom in Seattle, they would be massive. The beer is amazing. This one is no exception. It's extremely well made. Dark brown, near black pour. Where was this during the beer/donut pairing? Seems like the ideal mate to a chocolate or maple donut. So full of cinnamon, vanilla and chocolate on the aroma. Barrel notes without the booziness, which is amazing for a double digits brew. Slightly rich milk chocolate flavor lingers. Huge cinnamon constant, which resides as the dominant flavor for me here. Just an amazing execution of the spiced imperial stout sub style. Absolutely loved this beer.
