27 Boulder Shake Chocolate Porter United States Porter 4.6

Aroma: 10 | Appearance: 10 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

Pours out black like a mug of mud. The aroma is all chocolate. The mouthfeel is very smooth and thick. The taste is sweet and of chocolate malts, and a note of light coffee. This is as smooth as a milk stout. I should have bought two or three of these. The thick tan foamy head hangs on almost till the glass is empty.

28 Gulden Draak The Brewmasters Edition Belgium Belgian Strong Ale 4.6

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 10 | Overall: 10

Just no point in reviewing this brew because I just didn't care for it at all. Perhaps it might be better out of a bottle. Instead of out of a keg. I don't want to knock the product because I'm use to drinking out of a bottle. And that might make a big difference in the taste. Update 10/23/2015 just opened a bomber and there is no comparison to the draft. This is fantastic bottle is was made during the third edition and Jan .2015 I'm changing my rating to reflect the bottle not the draft which I only gave a 3.2

Now this is a damn fine pumpkin beer. I’m blown away at the aroma, flavor and thickness. It’s amazing that this is only 6% ABV. Don’t normally find all these qualities till 8-10%.

I Want More ! This is a seasonal stout that only comes out every other year. And this may very well be the best beer I have ever drank in my life. To describe the taste is impossible it has every hint and note on earth. When you find it buy all you can get !

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 10 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

Pop the top on this black beauty and wow you can smell the alcohol. This baby is thick and rich. The taste is very full and complex. I can taste malt more than hops and for me that is a good thing.

33 Moa Imperial Stout New Zealand Imperial Stout 4.5

Pours out a solid 98% black with a cascading tan foamy lingering head. The aroma is of dark roasted malt. The mouthfeel is good but not exactly thick. The taste is very complex and very well balanced. Not sure if the bitterness is from the hops or high ABV. This one just get better as it warms up. ( must buy again). Just gone blown away my research shows it 95 IBU.

37 Founders Canadian Breakfast Stout / Founders CBS United States Imperial Stout 4.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 10 | Mouthfeel: 10 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

Pours out 100% black with a lingering thick tan head. The aroma is not very pronounced but diffinitly smells of chocolate and maple.The mouthfeel is extremely thick. The taste is rich and if it was just a tad more sweet it would be to much. It's a really interesting fushion of maple and bourbon. I paid $30 for a bomber and think it was worth the price. This would really be interesting to mix 50% of this beer with a original founders imperial stout. Which in my opinion is the best beer they have ever brood.

41 Ayinger Celebrator Dopplebock Germany Doppelbock 4.4

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

I'm sure glad this beer is only 7% abv. Because it's hard to stop drinking them. This black Doppelbock just gets better and better as it warms up. I like to order them two at a time so the second one is perfect in taste. When I'm ready to light my second cigar.

Pours out 100% black with thick tan head. The aroma is sweet and of vanilla. The mouthfeel is thick as mud. The taste is rich and complex and continues to develope as it warms up. However the Bourbon hits you right up front. This is good but not as good as the regular Black Friday Bourbon and not worth the extra cost.

49 Sierra Nevada Narwhal Imperial Stout United States Imperial Stout 4.3

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 8

Drank this one from the tap. Boy was it think and black just the way I love them. First taste hit me with bitterness but smoothed out from there on. It was great with my cigar so I had a second one. Oops that was a mistake because it has a high abv. My buddy did the driving home.* Have also had this many times from the bottle and it's not as hoppy as the draft.

50 Weyerbacher Blithering Idiot United States English Barleywine 4.3

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

This reminds me of a Belgian style beer. It smells like a fruit bowl just a tad sweet. The color is a deep rich gold and brown almost orange. That pours a thick head that lasts a long time. The taste is full of flavor and thick in mouthfeel. Very smooth with zero bitterness. The ABV is there but is hidden by the taste.
