Bottle. A flat, dark brown beer with a few dark beige bubble. Roasted, bonfire-ish aroma with acetone, some dark dried fruits and a touch of cherries I wouldn’t recognice if I didn’t read the commercial description. It’s quite dry on the palate, soft and sweetish. Warming. Burnt flavor with some dried fruits and a touch of higher alcohols. Lasting finish. Not very good this one, certainly not my kind of Imperial Stout. 150524
