Bottle. Pours opaque black, small brown head, dissipates fairly quickly, bubbly lacing. Aroma is hugely roasty, anise, molasses, heavy molasses, cocoa. Fully sweet, light plus bitter. Full body, creamy with low carbonation. Pretty interesting and intense beer.

MF: soft carbon, medium body, smooth creamy texture. Taste: pretty roasted start, chocolate, bit of a smoky touch, soft bitterness, alcohol, sweetish, nice one! Aftertaste: sweet, some caramel, alcohol, roasted, ashes, nice liquid dessert, love it!

Bottle. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn coloured head. Nose - chocolate and raisins. Prunes. Taste - creamy but dark chocolate. Dried fruit, particularly raisins and dried orange peel. Dark treacle notes too. Palate - rich and full bodied with a creamy texture. The finish is still rich bit very balanced. Overall - a lovely imperial porter.
