Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown/black with a very dark rusty tan head. Aroma is chocolate/coconut/vanilla/smooth burnt malt. Full bodied. Flavor is smooth burnt malt/chocolate/vanilla/roasted coconut. Can't find the almonds. Not dry. Burnt malt bitter. Heat is hardly detectable. Good stuff.

Black and thick as motor oil. Father’s Day present from my daughter Shannon. 16 oz can from Tavour. Nose is almonds, coconut, and cocao. Black with a big dark, cinnamon tan head. Flavor is coconut, nutty almonds, and chocolate AKA a midnight Almond Joy candy bar.

16 ounce can into snifter, canned on 6/6/2019. Pours dense pitch black color with a small fairly dense and fluffy tan head with solid retention, that reduces to a thin ring of lace. Minimal spotty lacing on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, brown sugar, molasses, coconut, roasted almonds, vanilla, cream, fudge, toasted biscuit, and dark bread/crust; with lighter notes of licorice, raisin, prune, cherry, fig, date, smoke, char, leather, wood, tobacco, herbal, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Slight booze in the aromas as it warns, but not overwhelming. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of dark/black/roast/bready malts, cocoa, coconut, almond, lactose, vanilla, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop notes; with big strength. Taste of huge dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, brown sugar, molasses, coconut, roasted almonds, vanilla, cream, fudge, toasted biscuit, and dark bread/crust; with lighter notes of licorice, raisin, prune, cherry, fig, date, smoke, char, leather, wood, tobacco, herbal, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Mild herbal, grass, wood, pepper, roast, charred bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, brown sugar, molasses, coconut, roasted almonds, vanilla, cream, fudge, toasted biscuit, dark bread/crust, licorice, dark fruit, smoke, char, leather, wood, tobacco, herbal, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/black/roast/bready malts, cocoa, coconut, almond, lactose, vanilla, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; with a nice roast/hop bitter/sweet balance; and no cloying, acrid, astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering hop/roast bitterness and alcohol spiciness. Light-medium carbonation and extremely full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/velvety/bready, and lightly slick/sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is fantastic. Mild increasing warmth of 15.1%, with minimal booze lingering after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic flavored imperial stout. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/black/roast/bready malts, cocoa, coconut, almond, lactose, vanilla, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to sip on for the huge ABV, with the mildly bitter/drying finish; fantastic soft feel for the ABV. Amazing balance of super rich malts, coconut, cocoa, almond, lactose, and vanilla flavorings; with mild earthy hops and fruity yeast. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and amazing style example for the huge ABV. You would never be able to guess the ABV.

Sampled from a can this beer poured oily and black with a small soapy very dark brown head. The aroma was dough, sharp whiskey, coconut, and vanilla. The flavor was strong chocolate, vanilla, toasted coconut, red wine and oatmeal. Long finish. Thick, smooth and undercarbonated. Not as boozy as one might expect for 15%.
