Another dark and rich Imperial Stout brought to us this time by Great Divide Brewing Co. This 9.5% alcohol (about normal for Imperial Stouts) pours black with pretty much no head. Like most other Imperials this has a scent of roasted malts, liqorice, chocolate, and coffee. On first sip I instantly taste the alcohol kick, followed by a nice and mellow bitter chocolate and liqorice after taste. This beer flows nicely but I do not think it is quite as good as the Stone Brewing Co. Imperial, although it is less intense if that is what you are looking for. Overall another decent Stout.
Appearance - 3.8
