Bottle shared at kermis' birthday. Almost black with dark beige head. Cinnamon, flowers, sweet malts and toffee, dark chocolate, more flowers, maple, funny fruits, could be orange but also could be funny candy. Fudge. Quite sweet, light bitter. Full bodied with slick feel. Nice, but I don't get that much coffee.

Bottle shared at kermis's, thanks Chris. Pours pretty much black with some brown foam on top. Nose is super chocolaty, lots of molasses, cocoa-filled milk chocolate with vodka soaked cherries. Taste is boozy but that is not really bothering, alcohol burn there. Creamy dark chocolate, lots of cocoa, some chilli burn there also. Great stuff.

Bottle shared thanks to kermis. Black with brown head. Coffee up front, lots of cocoa, vanilla, roasted malts, dates, raisins, thick dark roasted chocolate desserts. Like a caramelized chocolate fudge or something. Soft booze, oxidized fruits. Medium sweet and bitter. Almost full bodied with some rough alcohol. Nice aroma though it's a little rough on the alcohol.

Poured from a 500 ml bottle. Aroma is a bit odd with neither coffee, coconut or vanilla being prevalent. Lots of chocolate with some lighter roast notes. The adjuncts I guess are more vanilla forward with less coffee. Light alcohol spice. Pours black with a small, thick, mocha head that recedes to a thin film that linger son the edge. No lacing and moderate legs. Flavor is fairly sweet with a lot of chocolate notes and a bit of fudge. Light roast notes. Some light vanilla and lighter coconut. Coffee is very light. Moderate bitterness. Light alcohol spice. Mouthfeel is medium full to full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer. I like that the adjuncts are not super forward and well balanced. Very chocolate forward with fudge notes.

On tap. Pours black with light whitish head. Aromas of graham crackers, dark sugar, sweet vanilla, and slick roasted malts. Sweet and sticky Flavors follow same with additional sugary coconut and brownies. Very nice for a big sweet Imp.
