beer_name: Imperial Stout
text: Appearance: Poured into a Duvel sniffter; perfect pitch black with a three finger tan head that disspated quickly; little retention and lacing. Smell: Very oily almost soy sauce-like bittersweet chocolate with roasty espresso background. Mouthfeel: Huge full body, syrupy... this stuff stains the glass black... slick and muted carbonation. Taste: Roasty and pruny and malty, chocolately and burnt. Drinkability: I've got to hammer here a bit for the $15 price tag for the ceramic bomber... totally unnecessary... I wouldn't buy again for that price... great beer, but not a $15 beer.
