Bottle from Liquor Mountain. Nose of burnt wood, licorice, soy sauce, chocolate, light coffee. Rich, malty, roasty nose. Nice. Shiny pitch black with a pretty tan head. Nicely roasty, dark chocolate, cafe au lait, berries. Complex, big, and well put together. Very fruity. Good stuff.

Cloudy weather means darker beers! I saw this in the taplist for Ibaraki Bakuon and also found it at Liquor Mountain: Nagahama Imperial Stout Motor oil pour with a tan head with a great roasty toasty aroma that is very appealing. Smooth velvety body but a bit too light bodied. Decent flavor with light roast and bitter cacao (60-70%), it pairs well with chocolate. A very solid beer but a tad light for an imperial stout, I’ll buy this again and more evidence Nagahama is slowly upping their game.
