Excellent - deep, rich, satisfying - black, thick chew, little head, lightly aromatic, roasted coffee with hints of dark chocolate, and a very subtle effervescence, delicious

Excellent evening sipper! - thick black with brown tinge and medium thick tan head, pleasant roasty aroma, smooth with great mouthfeel, pleasantly chocolate with a bit of sweet and a nice mild peppery heat - yum! Great on its own! Packs a 12% punch

Pleasant stout ruined by hazelnut - dark brown near black with dark tan head, pleasant chocolate and roasted coffee aroma, artificial tasting hazelnut (slightly metallic/bitter) ruins it, medium chew

Ginger, Spice, Barreled And Nice M
Nice barleywine ale a bit cluttered with spice - golden amber malty rich ale with a pleasant not overpowering hop level has a nice ginger aroma but the cinnamon and clove can be a bit sharp particularly on the back of the throat

Sweetness and cinnamon mar a good ale - dark amber brown with creamy tan head, nice maltiness with a subtle hop and pleasant chew but syrupy sweet and cinnamon bite is a bit sharp and artificial

Pleasant, thin coffee porter - black with tan head, pleasant roasted coffee notes are subtle not in your face with a touch of vanilla that borders on too much, wet and thin with no chew and a slight effervescence, overall pleasant but rather have original

Syrupy sweetness mars a good ale - brown with medium tan head, nice thick chew, heavy maple aroma and flavor, syrupy thick drippy sweetness distracts from strong base ale

Pleasant sipper with a touch of sweetness - golden honey color with thinner cream colored head, pleasant medium chew with a nice touch of sweetness not overdone, could use a touch of spice to make this a real winner

Deep, rich dessert in a glass - thick black with dark tan/brown medium head. Deep chocolate flavor with a heavy (nearly too heavy) sweetness and a pleasant hint of cherry particularly as you swallow. Easy to drink quickly but better to slowly savor

Cinnamon ruins it - deep rich thick chewy with pleasant cocoa aroma but layered with an acrid cinnamon, bark-like bite that hits theback your throat. A big bummer and NO WAY worth $28.98 for a 4-pack! It gets a 3 because the base is excellent

Delicious...smooth, dark, malty, deep coffee aroma and flavor. Nic - "liquid candy". Thin white head. Very enjoyable! Bitterness is subtle for an imperial.
