A creamy, imperial sweet stout long aged on cocoa nibs then dosed with a massive amount of toasted coconut and vanilla beans. Smooth and rich, Comet, Invasion unfolds on the palate with delicious candylike flavors.

A: Pours an opaque yet still clear jet black in color with moderate fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and faint dark chestnut brown + dark cola brown + dark garnet red colored highlights. The beer has a finger tall dense foamy dark tan head that reduces to a large patch of thin film covering a little more than 75% of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of milk chocolate/cacao nibs and moderate aromas of vanilla + toasted coconut. Moderate aromas of roasted + dark + caramel + chocolate malts with moderate amounts of caramel + lactose sweetness.
T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of roasted + dark + caramel + chocolate malts with moderate amounts of caramel + lactose sweetness. That is followed by slightly stronger than moderate flavors of vanilla + toasted coconut. Finally there are moderate to strong flavors of sweet milk chocolate/cacao nibs. Minimal amounts of roasty bitterness which fades away quickly leaving lingering milk chocolate (though not overly sweet).
M: Medium to full bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Smooth.
O: Drinks very easily considering the strength and the alcohol is well hidden. Smooth and rich in flavor and aroma - very enjoyable and a perfect after dinner dessert beer.
