Very thick, rich and dark texture and colour. A soft tan head with a nose featuring nuts, bitter chocolate, with touches of coffee and hops. The taste profile extends those features, with a warm booziness, milk chocolate, coffee, vanilla and ripe cherries. Thick roast malt and some chalkiness in the finish add to the complex tastes in this well made imperial

Draft. Wow, very alcoholy and it tastes it. Pours a dark dark black, taste is some mocha but the alco is overpowering, IMO. Not that great a rep of the style.

Big black pour with a thin small mocha head. Aroma is very very hoppy with notes of coffee and chocolate. Flavor is very roasty, lots of roasted malt, and a boat load of licorice. A nice imperial stout, i really enjoyed sipping on this one.

Dieses Imperial Stout ist blickdicht und erinnert in seiner Konsistenz an Rohöl. Es ist ein wohl ausbalanciertes, gut durchdachtes Stout, dass aber nicht zu stark beißt, wie es einige Biere mit dem Zusatz "Imperial" tun. Es schmiegt sich gut an den Gaumen und ich kann keine Fehlaromen finden. Wirklich, das einzige, das mich an diesem Bier störte, war dass es kein MHD aufgedruckt hatte.

Black color with a tan head, medium retention with nice lacework. Aroma has notes of roasted malts, black ripe fruit, coffee with liquor hints. Flavor is slightly sweet, roasted malts notes, coffee taste with notes of ripe prunes. Light bitterness in the final; dense and creamy on palate with a roasty mouthfeel.
