    This is a stout? An Imperial Stout?!!! It's brown, not dark brown, not black, brown, like the brown ale I just had. I even asked the bartender if this was the Imperial Stout and he said "yeah, It's a lighter stout. It's not nitro infused like Guinness" Um yeah, not shit sherlock. I didn't think it would be nitro infused, but then again I didn't think it would be brown either. THIS IS NOT AN IMPERIAL STOUT! The aroma is slightly sweet and malty with slight notes of alcohol. That's it nothing more. THIS IS NOT AN IMPERIAL STOUT! The flavor is similar to the aroma, lacking any signs of an imperial stout or any stout for that matter. THIS IS NOT AN IMPERIAL STOUT! It's medium to full bodied and slightly smooth. THIS IS NOT AN IMPERIAL STOUT!
