benazfanboy (65) - - AUG 15, 2020UPDATED: AUG 15, 2020 Color comes in as inky black as one would expect an imperial stout to be. The carbonation produced a fair amount of head, which was surprising because other beers of this style produced little or no head. Aroma of this brew definitely had the familar bittersweet chocolate I've come to expect. It was reminiscent of bakers chocolate. Also, some dark fruits, like maybe plums, raisens and cherries. The flavor was the bittersweet chocolate with an expresso vibe. This was smooth and creamy all the way down. This actually drank more like a porter. It's also noteworthy that the alcohol was well concealed. Given the fact that this can cellar for a while, it would interesting to see how then flavor would change. Overall, I buy this again for sure.
higgsbison (350) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 24, 2020Pours almost black with a tan head. Roasted malt sweetness is balanced well with the hops. Creamy and full-bodied with soft carbonation. Notes of biscuit, coffee and unsweetened chocolate. Nice long lasting dry finish. A solid example of the style.
