Can to tulip.
Appearance: black in the glass with a thin cap of a little khaki head. This slid off to leave some concave lace
Aroma: wonderful blend of coffee, hazelnut, cinnamon and a light dose of nutmeg blending with wonderful roasty coffee and milk chocolatey tones of the stout base
Flavor: sweet and cinnamonny spicy while the hazelnut leans further back in there and the nutmeg seems to disappear altogether (okay, odd but whatever); mild aftertaste of the cinnamon and stout base with the hazelnut
Texture: medium to full bodied, good as a sipper; semi-smooth and cinnamon spicy on the tongue; finishes with the cinnamon, hazelnut and coffee
Overall: nifty idea for an imperial pastry stout, I believe I could come back to this.

Can to stange.
Appearance: ruddy burnt copper color with some transparency about it, two and a half fingers of white foamy head took it's time to slide off and leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet bready to earthy tones, subtle floral hop setting, some nutty tones
Flavor: copies the aromas in a bittersweet and toasty fashion; nice aftertaste of nuts, earthy character and bready/biscuity claims
Texture: full bodied with some sessionability about it; fairly smooth; finishes crisp and bittersweet
Overall: I like this as an altbier and would seek out again.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown color with a small cap of an eggshell white foamy head, dissipated to leave some messy lace
Aroma: rich roasted and sweet pecans, pie crust, maple is nice and sweet
Flavor: roasty and sweet through the prior mentioned aromas, barely any aftertaste but seemed somewhat maple-y and pecans
Texture: full bodied, decadently smooth, she's a sipper; finishes roasty with the maple, and I'm so glad to say it's not cloying (huge sigh of relief as so many brewers screw that part up)
Overall: a practically perfect decadent evening dessert beer that would absolutely put one in their happy place.

Aromas are apricot, peach, vanilla, cinnamon and malt. Flavors are similar to nose and a little more tart than sweet at first, reversing in the finish. Nice to try once but wouldn't want another.
