Bottled. A pitch black beer with a thin dark brown head. The aroma has notes of chocolate, coffee, and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, coffee, alcohol, and roasted malt, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Bottle at Craft Heads, Tokyo. Black colour with a tan head. Aroma and flavour are both coffee, with some roasted coffee and a lingering flavour of coffee.

Dark brown color with thin head. Smells like a ton of cold coffee with slight notes of roasted malt and caramel. Sweet, unbalanced mouth that is over ridden with coffee. Lingering coffee roasted finish. I wanted to like this, but very simplistic brew that went no where

Purchased at Binnyβs in Chicago, IL, enjoyed at a friends house while watching Anaconda, for some reason. Appearance is moderately thick pitch black with a rich frothy white head. Aroma its very bitter coffee and chocolate, hazelnut, vanilla, very light sweetness. Taste is fantastic. Rich dark chocolate, hazelnut, and vanilla notes, utterly rich coffee profile, more of an espresso richness. Vanilla is pure and doesnβt taste like extract was used, more like vanilla beans were integrated. This brewery does great things with imperial stouts.

Bottle. Pours black with a very dark brown head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma is mainly coffee and espresso with a bit of dark chocolate and roasted malts. Flavor starts with coffee but mellows to allow a nice dark roasted malt note to come out that is complimented by some dark chocolate.
