Tap at Edo-bori Beer Belly. Dark brown with a dark beige head of small bubbles. Aroma, not massively strong, bit of spice, bit of coffee, roastiness. Taste is full of roasted coffee, bit of dark chocolate and a slightly herbal aftertaste. Real prickle in the mouth, and a spicy buzz. Nice and thick oily texture and pleasant bitter finish.

Basically black. Light brown head. Approachable impy, has toffee, hint of liquorice, blackberry hop, nicely balanced. I like the mellow, quaffable impies.

On tap at Watering Hole. Part of a tasting flight. Deep black with a creamy tan head that lasts throughout with great lacing. Huge coffee and chocolate aromas with some tobacco, soy sauce and dark fruit that comes out as it warms up. Creamy on the palate with nice balance between sweet, tart and bitter. Full bodied and rich with a nice long smooth finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Minoh Imperial Stout on 12 May 2015 at 19:15 - Score: 8

Bottle. Hop Hideout, Sheffield. Clear, dark brown. Messy, bubbly, lasting, light brown head. A bit viscous, and leggy. Alway a good sign. Coffee bean. 70% + dark chocolate. Quite tart, in other words. Some soy. Some savoury. Drinks rich, tart, smooth, with some nutty sweet redeeming qualities. Full bodied, with light carbonation. Finishes dry, light tart, and light, nutty, roasty bitter. Big beer, that’s very drinkable.

Pour pitch black, really dark with a nice foamy totally brown head. Looks like a very well brewed nice coffee. Aroma has some nice deep roast, burnt bread and lactose. Lets wait a bit more, when it’s warmer there are probably more nuances. Taste is soft at first, velvety liquid enters the mouth and then starts showing character. Character is roasty, has some dark bitter chocolate, charred toast, a bit of sweetish lactose. I am not getting much fruitiness and the sweet sensation is also short, giving way to longer charred roastiness. Good example of an imperial stout, very well brewed.

Bottle shared at the RBESG 2014, grand tasting 10/08/2014 Craft Beer Co Clerkenwell. Aroma is earthy coffee, roasted malts and some smoked malts. Dark caramel brown coloured pour with a lasting loose tan head. Pretty attractive. Flavour is oak, smoke, peat and and vanilla with some berry fruit. Palate is nice full bodied with a velvety carbonation.
