At the breweery: Pours black with a tan head. This isn’t the most oily and viscous stout, but it is certainly pretty dark. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, roasted malts, some vanilla perhaps, nice hops. The real good thing about this beer is the really smooth body. It has a great texture. The taste of course is nothing to sneeze at either. Its flavor profile is unpretentious. This doesn’t seek to go over the top or add weird flavors. Instead, it is a standard Imperial Stout, but one that is executed remarkably well. Quite good.
