I obtained this 750 ml bottle from Rare Beers several years ago, one of my few remaining big bottles in storage. Label says Enjoy By 06-02-24, I am missing that by a while. Removing the cage, lifting the cork and finally pouring. It arrives like motor oil and is the same color. Very little to speak of in regards to a head, instead there is a small rim of extremely fine silver bubbles. I smell dark chocolate, dark fruit and booze. The taste is decent but not life changing. Semi-sweet chocolate, rye bread, a touch of raisins, roasted malts oak and some whiskey swirling about in the background. The sensation is thinner than the appearance promised. A nice enough brew, I hoped for something leaving a bigger impression. I do lament the decline in availability of imperial stouts these days and to a lesser degree, the disappearance of beer in big bottles.

Bottled from mom's. Cloudy amberush pour with thin white head. Sugar, malt, fruit, rum raisin aroma. Similar taste, toffee lightly soured and an initial bitter

Bottled. Not too bad, drank from bottle but a nice bread malt aroma, caramel and some lite hops. Better effort from blue mtn.

.75l big bottle. Cloudy yellow otange white head. Decent enough esters and banana but something off about this - watery and not right. Oh and the cork said best by march 2013. Really useful....after you bought and opened already.
