look: 4.25 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.75
Drank from 22 oz. bottle, poured into a pint glass. One of 9 bottles purchased this past winter .couldnt wait any longer!
Drank outside on a cool sunny day .Dark as can be being held to the sun itself revealed no light whatsoever passing through. Pours an oily blackness with a thick foamy long-lasting head that leaves a very sticky lacing.
Roasted coffee aroma and taste with some woody flavors as well as molasses and a hint of licorice. Very creamy with a silky, smooth. mouthfeel.
The high abv is nearly completely masked. A great imperial stout and another very nice offering from Deschutes.
UPDATE 2/1/2013: remarkably my spouse was cleaning out a garage pantry last week and came across a bottle of 2006. I drank 1/3 of it this afternoon. It was remarkable. Slightly subdued flavors but insanely increased smoothness. If you have any 2006 still in cellar, don't fear it's possible demise; it is criminally smooth and a still great experience.
