4.3/5
AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
22 ounce bottle into snifter. Pours pitch black with a very nice 2 finger tan head with amazing retention that reduces to a lingering cap. Aromas of strong whiskey with chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, and molasses. Taste of chocolate and coffee with a lot of bourbon in the back towards the finish that slowly fades into a slow rising bitterness on the finish, that lingers with bourbon and roasty chocolate notes. The bourbon flavor lasts the longest after the finish. A very smooth and excellent barrel aged imperial stout!!
Maybe a little too strong on the bourbon, but I love bourbon and it blends well with the Imperial Stout.
