Our imperial stout collar with Twin Sails Brewing is not surprisingly an adjunct imperial stout conditioned on coffee, coconut and a hint of chai spice. At 9 percent, this beer is immensely drinkable.

Tall can. Pours a very dark brown with a weak head. Aroma is spices, coffee and dark malt. Taste is sweet with coffee, some dark chocolate, and a bit of spices. Quite silky. Good stuff.

473mL can, pours black with almost no head. Aroma brings out coffee upfront, with light coconut and subdued cinnamon. Flavour reveals the coffee and coconut upfront, accentuated with light cinnamon. Silky mouthfeel, with a finish of coffee and coconut. Excellent.

Dark brown. Not much head. The aroma is chocolate, with a touch of cinnamon and vanilla. The palate is a bit thin, some coconut, has some coffee, and I swear vanilla but apparently not. Put together it's ok, but these elements have been done better in other beers...it's thinnish and simple compared with the most enjoyable of the style.

Black with barely any head. Strong coffee character, more evident when cold, but backed up by good bready and chocolately body. The alcohol is well hidden.

The coffee aroma is prominent, nice chocolate flavour.
2018-02-12, draught at the brewery, 7-3-7-3-15=35
Black color with no head. Nice aroma of chocolate, hints of coconut, raw cocoa, caramel. Medium body strength, chocolate base, hints of coffee and coconut.
Balanced, not very sweet, very good.
