    Pours dark chocolate with a fair buff head. Aroma provides roast malt, dark fruit and fresh wood notes. Flavor offers roast malt, fig, chocolate and slight pepper tones. Texture features firm body and peppy fizz. Give a fig.

    Beautiful pour but unfortunately the head fades a little too fast. Coffee and ash aroma. Very full flavoured beer with coffee, chocolate dark fruit, caramel and big tin ashtray. Full bodied beer. Chain smoking, stout lovers dream.

    Pours a deep copper-brown colour with ruby highlights. The head is bubbly-foamy, mocha-coloured with good retention and beautiful creamy-foamy lacing. Earthy aromas with some bitter chocolate, roasted malts and some coffee. Flavours of chocolate and roasted malts. Mild grassy hops and coffee in the finish. Hard to feel the fig as if any dark fruits, pretty light. The rest is pretty earthy for a beer, but goes down nicely. Maybe they are sandy figs.

    Pours a nice average creamy frothy beige head and has a dark brown appearance with ruby highlights. Lacing is decent. Aromas roasted barley malts, notes of chocolate and coffee. Flavours of coffee, chocolate, spices, earthy hops. Quite a bit of sweetness from the figs, as well as some mild bitterness. Fairly smooth and slick mouthfeel. Average retention. Slight warming sensation. Alcohol is well hidden. Good stuff.

    An easy drinking Imperial Stout. Good dark brown colour and a decent sized creamy head. Lots of dark fruit and roasted notes in the nose, and the taste is similar. Price will scare people off though.

    The beer pours a blackish brown colour with a thick foamy chocolate brown head. The aroma is roasted malt, coffee, figs, and smoked wood. The mouthfeel is full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is roasted malt, smoked wood, dark chocolate, and coffee. The fruits aren't very noticeable in the flavour. A very good beer.
