11.5%. pours with a big fluffy head...dark brown, almost black w a little light getting in. lucious feel. hoppy bitterness, chocolate, dark roast and a hint of anise and smoke in the nose and flavor. Pretty nice brew.

Rich, smoky texture has notes of toffee, roast malt, licorice and quality coffee. It pours a dark sable with a thick and persistent fine-bubbled tan head. Flavor fills the mouth, almost bursting out, with chocolate, roast malt, nutty, caramel and coffee notes plus hints of toffee and licorice - and a sneaky alcohol bite that will remind you this is an Imperial stout! Smooth, fizzy texture leaves a smoky, somewhat sweet finish with chocolate and licorice tones and little to be desired. One of the best Imperial Stouts available.

A pretty boring and typical imp, not what I was hoping for from the high grav NH series. An oily black pour with smells of chocolate, roast malt, burnt molasses and booze. This was way too cloying for me, too sticky to drink much of it at all. The flavor was just OK, roasty and impy but just not good enough.

Pours pretty dark black with a rim head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate, and dark fruit. Flavor is the same. Low carbonation, very watery smooth mouthfeel. All around a good drinker.

Black with a small beige head. Straightforward and a bit simplistic aroma of dark chocolate, cocoa, almonds and vanilla. Full-bodied with notes of dark chocolate, grass, nuts, toasted malts and brown sugar. Long warming finish of nougat, grass and salt.

Sampled on 4/20/2009 at the Malt House. Part of the 4/20 special. Poured a dark brownish bronzeish colour scheme with a full tan hand head. Aroma is on the nose again and again strong and long lingering with an extremely palatable finish rounding off nicely for this long winded and totally desirable brew. Cheers to the years spent drinking and thinking of drinking good respectable beer in the company of your respectful peers.

A big brew, lots of roasty notes and a big dark alcohol bite, not much subtlety here, but still insanely drinkable, yet smooth, a very sneaky brew... after afew minutes the head dies down, a dark still demon black .. . super smooth, a great sipper, yet massive and bold still keeps its dignity

... seriously.... i am more of a day tripper ,the last few years of high school would confirm that, but being a night tripper can be exciting too...BUT...make sure not to take 3 hits of acid, strap red blinking lights to your visor, and drive around your neighbor hood smoking finally ending the adventure by trenching a neighbors yard and hiding in your bros room smoking sticky buds with with your boys including nick and juice!!!..you will burn your hand in the end...

Bottoms up! Bronze head, dark as a deep dark black night. Bitter, some chocolate. I tried this beer last year and wrote down "Cheers to this stout. A good beer for breakfast."

Can I have some stout with my ash? Man! I haven’t had a beer this ashy since Coast Range’s Porter. Yowza! Not a character that I enjoy in my stouts, so when it’s something detected at this level it’s even less enjoyable.

The aroma is dark chocolate, roasted malts, alcohol, and subtle dark fruits. The beer poured out a beautiful black color with a thick black head. Flavor had too much ashyness for my liking, like licking a damned charcoal. Just didn’t dig this. Everything looked good until I tasted it.
