A. Mahogany, with slight reddish tones. It was maybe a little over-carbonated with average head that settled quickly.
S. Malty, with an acid-like sour smell; it was dull and also smelled slightly metallic. Very faint hop aroma, and some hints of chocolate.
T. Still dull and slightly metallic in the finish. It is malt dominated as you would expect from an Imperial Porter, and had little evidence of any hops. It doesn't taste like a bad bottle but something is definitely off. Some hints of artificial cherry flavor that seem out of place.
M. It is smooth but not as heavy as you would think it should be.
D. This beer was not insulting, but it wasn't much more. I'm still trying to figure out what was "Imperial" about it. Almost no lace remained on the glass when it was half empty. Decent at best, but disappointing.

It's almost black with a tan lacing. It's got legs.
It's got a dried fruit smell with a bit of roasted malts.
Very fruity beer. Raisiny and figgy. It's really, REALLY sweet. Not very roasty or hoppy.
It's thick with little to no carbonation.
This doesn't seem at all like porter. It seems more like a seet, fruity stout. Not sure how this is a porter. This beer also doesn't warm well.
