2017 Vintage, can at home. Pours black, creamy, dense, long lasting dark head. Smell is hoppy ( very 'green' hops, target-like earthyness. sharp roastyness. creamy, intense hoppy layers really make this scent a pleasurefull one. Taste is intense, very full, creamy green hops, very intense, but JUST not overpowering the total beer. very roasty, creamy, bitter and roasted finish. The hoppyness in this one ( earthy hops, again, target-style ) really blasts this 'basic' imperial stout to the top in it's category. Forget about Pastry, if you want a real, classic US style imperial stout ? This should be your go-to.
