2012 vintage. Served in a snifter

Appearance: Pours jet black with 2 fingers of a dark tan, almost brown head. Body is completely opaque.

Smell: Roasted malt, cocoa, light smoke, toffee, molasses.

Taste: Dark chocolate, roasted malt, raisins, honey, earth, light caramel/toffee sweetness, and some slight smokiness. Finish and aftertaste is a nice balance of honey sweetness and roasted coffee bitterness.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, high/medium carbonation. Booze is hidden well.

Overall: One of my favorite offerings from Dogfish head. The base beer is solid and the addition of the honey beer really adds to it and helps set it apart from some of the other great imperial stouts out there. Definitely worth picking up a bottle.

Serving type: bottle

Poured a gorgeous deep black with a thin tan head. Looks quite nice. Scents of black coffee, roast malt and some alcohol. Standard for the style. Flavor begins with dark chocolate and black coffee, moving into those same flavors with a bit of added sweetness and ending with all those flavors plus roast malt and an aftertaste that combines roast malt and black coffee. Mouthfeel is thick and heavy bodied with decently high carbonation for the style. Also a sort of woody, drying quality, most likely due to the gesho root. It's a very good imperial stout, but it's not quite the odd take on the style I expected from Dogfish Head. Very good, but very normal, which doesn't mean it's bad. It's an experiment that worked, if it only did produce normal results. I'd have it again.
