On Tap deep inky black with a lasting dense light brown head. Big rich chocolaty malt aromas and flavors. Tons of smooth slightly sweet roastiness. Smooth body, perfectly complimentary boozy oak barrel character. Everything melds together perfectly. Very good.

Bomber from Albertsons. Dark brown pour with soft beige head, fades to skin Chocolaty, roasty aroma gets a bit fuller in the flavor. Taste features more of the chocolate, some of the roast grains, mildly sweet, incredibly smooth. This is a lot better than I expected it to be.

Deep dark brown body with a smallish, two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, tons of raisins and figs with a good caramelised sugar scent and a fairly large note of mushrooms and mellowed earthy malts. Medium-bodied; Assertive toasted malt notes with some earth and grain, but more of a caramelised sugar, toffee and light prune and plum sweetness that shows a lot of raisins and sugars more than anything else. Some coffee and more assertive bitter notes show at the end, but this is actually relatively smooth and subdued, especially for the style. Overall, a fairly decent Imperial Stout that is quite thin and showing some good tastes, however this has been aged for more than two years, which on purpose, has caused the astringency to die down. Nice to sample, especially from the region, but this isn't worth trying to go out and find and/or saving a bottle of this for multiple years like I did. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon on 03-May-2015 for US$8,31 sampled at home in Washington almost 2.5 years later, after being aged in a nice musty basement in proper cellar conditions on 14-October-2017.

12oz can pours out amber topped with a white head. Nose is pine citrus hops and some bread malts. Taste is more of the nice hop combo and malt bill.
