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.

Bottle, courtesy of Papsoe. Dark brown beer, probably clear, except for some sediments in the bottle, and with a minimal, beige head. Coffee, some mocha and roasted malt in the aroma, with some hops in the background. Sweet, roasted, coffeeish flavor, and a roasted and slightly bitter finish. The mouthfeel is a bit thin for an imperial stout, but that only makes it more drinkable. A bit ordinary for an imperial stout, but certainly not bad. (071005)

Darkest brown, looks black with a toffee colored head....soft spacious bubbles....aroma---malty chocolate, mocha, and chocolate ice cream....palate---first sip cold, crisp and smooth then changes to a sticky malty substance, nice lingering flavors....taste---coffee...toffee...brown sugar......a nice bedtime brew, makes me want peanut butter(another time)..."Sticky lips I lick, the suds drizzle, nice and thick, but thin enough that its not too tough, to drink this brew through and through"--J.F.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Clear, dark brown with a tint of red and a creamy, beige head. Aroma of burned malt. Medium body with hard roasted - yet fairly sweet - malts. Almost candy-like with its underlying sweetness - and acidity. The bitterness is very subdued. but a pleasant one. 051007

From 12 fl oz bottle. Pours dark brown with a lacing brown head. Coffee, roasted malt, chocolate and a whiff of dried fruit. Sweet malty flavour with chocolate smoothness and a mild liqourice edge in the finish. Slight breadish end with an underlying fruityness. I love the label of this one :)

Roasted malt aroma. Pours clear and dark ruby brown with a thin head and decent lacing. Tastes is woody, smoky, and cantaloupe. There’s a faint whisper of smoke afterwards. Thin mouthfeel.

Red shine and near-black beer under a grey-amber head. Hops and coffee. It’s nearly Danish (joke, joke); dry hopdust. Chocolate & coffee. Sweet and hopflavour, rather short-lived, except for the chocolate. Quite full-bodied, long lasting chocolate. It starts very promising; but from that it gest downhill. It’s too hyped on roast and hops. Try some brewing next.

On draft - Stogies and Stouts at Dunedin Brewery 02/08/07. Poured black with quarter inch creamy (not really Guinness nitro creamy) tan head. The aroma is light and a tad fruity with some roasted malts just making it to my nose. The flavor is smooth with notes of chocolate, caramel, a little black patent and some light Barleywine like fruitiness. Wow, this beer is really smooth, almost velvety. I also sense hints of alcohol that blend nicely with the rest of the flavors.
