This full-bodied imperial stout pours an opaque mahogany color with a tan head. Its smell is dominated by notes of roasted coffee beans, with a slight hint of chocolate, but Simcoe and Fuggles hops add complexity to the aroma. The roasted barley is detectable in the taste, and this complements the bitterness from the Warrior hops - balancing out the sweetness from the load of malts used in brewing Peg Leg. A creamy mouthfeel makes this a smooth, utterly drinkable beer.

12 ounce bottle from Buzz. Opaque brown color. Small dense tan head. Roasted malt aroma hints at coffee and chocolate. Bittersweet roasted malt flavor has notes of molasses and licorice. Some resiny notes in finish balance this nicely.

LCRBM2: Coffee and red berries in the aroma. Coffee and caramel in the flavor. Red berries. Sweetish beer, but a nice one.

Personal impy stout blind tasting. This was the 3rd out of 4. Here it goes:
By far the most uninteresting of the lineup. Not thin but thinnest body of the 3 with a tingling carbonation that leads to a soda like mouthfeel. Really disperses and loses the flavors. Aroma comes off as really cheap and watered down, spit in, and maybe peed in coffee. I swear, a hint of fish scales. Flavor is mostly malt husks and again cheap old pissy coffee. And again I swear there is a mollusk or something in here. Returning AFTER FULL LINEUP: definitely the worst with some wacky fishy flavor that really is occupying my senses.
I only guessed one beer correctly in the lineup, this was it. I’m pretty sure I had this some time before and knew that it wasn’t for my tastes.

Bottle from Total Wines, Sterling VA. Jet black in colour, with a thin, beige, head. Coffee and dark chocolate notes, some caramel and dark berry sweetness, before a rich, toasty finish. Good.
