16 oz. can. Pours black, with a medium, brown head. The nose is big vanilla, apple brandy, milk chocolate, nutty sherry, and cinnamon. Sweet, malty, and boozy. Thick and syrupy. This is a decadent and aggressive stout, but fun and tasty.

Lives up to its name, with a huge, chewy, viscous texture chock-full of fudge, vanilla, raisin, bourbon, and more fudge. So much fudge. Too sweet--apparently I'm going to be using this comment on all modern imperial stouts for the foreseeable future--but the bourbon is nice, and the mild oak bitterness on the back end shores things up a bit. ABV is completely hidden. A little much for me, but a well-made pint.
