Bottle. Pours a hazy deep amber with a brown head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has a lot of caramel with some sweet grains and just a hint of grass. Flavor starts with smooth caramel with sweet grains with a bit of grassy hops.

Bomber from timfoolery. It’s a wild pour. One inch of dark brown and 4+ fingers of creamy/foamy tan head. Aroma through that head is tuff, but there’s a lot of heavy dark burnt malt down below. Med body or better. Flavor is fairly smooth burnt malt with some aspects that could be bourbon or celery. Odd, but I could call it either way. There’s some chocolate, and it’s rather ashy, but it’s dry, seemingly astringent, and there’s a lot of hop bitter. Pardon while I attend to the foam creeping from the bottle. Damn nice drink. Much more flavor than many stouts. As flavorful as an IS, but in a very different, but similar, way.

On tap at the Vinter. Pours a clear gold with a white head that lasts throuhhout the beer and laces. Aroma has pine hops with a toch of citrus and sweet grains. Flavor has light pine hops with a good amount of grassiness and a touch of earthy grains.

Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Bruce. It pours jet black with a medium tan head. The nose roasted malt, raspberry ice-cream, tangy berry, toasted coconut, vanilla and oak. The taste is roasted malt, fresh raspberry, tangy fruit, toast, espresso,, tar, earth and a hint of soy sauce with a bitter-sweet finish. Medium-full body and moderate carbonation. Pretty tasty stuff indeed. I prefer this to their regular impy stout.

2011 bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Bruce. It pours very dark brown with a small light tan head. The nose is roasted malt, tar, coffee, dark honey, soy sauce, toasted sesame seed, caramel and espresso. The taste is roasted malt, espresso, earth, burnt wood, dark chocolate, charcoal, toasted coconut and some soy sauce with a dry finish. Full body and moderate carbonation. Pretty smooth and hides the alcohol well. Not bad, but I dislike the soy-sauce aspect.
