Poured from a 16oz can into pint glass in July 2022. There is a canned on date 3/21/2022, and purchased during my visit to their brewpub 2 months ago.
Appearance: Dark black with very thin dark tan/brown head. The head is less than 1-finger thick with very fine bubbles, and lasts for only a minute and ended with no head. There is very little lacing sticking to the glass.
Smell: Strong aroma of coconut and chocolate. Also, some roasted malt, coffee, and a hint of sweetness from alcohol. Overall, the coconut dominate the others.
Taste: There is a nice balance between the sweetness from the chocolate and coconut, versus the roasted malts and coffee flavors. There is a little hob bitterness to add to the taste and add some complexity. There is a strong alcohol presence, as with other Imperial Stouts, which matches the 16.6% on the label. Great aftertaste, which is also dominated by the chocolate and coconut.
Mouth-feel: Thick, but with an extremely smooth and creamy body. Much more smooth than many other imperial stouts. The high alcohol is well-balanced and not overpowering.
This is a very good imperial stout, and it has a variety of flavors that adds an impressive complexity to the beer. Although this is a big beer, it is smooth and very enjoyable to drink. The smoothness adds to the overall enjoyment. Another great stout from Adroit Theory and provides a good 'sweeter' alternative to their 'Atomic Age' and 'Dia De Los Muertos' stouts that I have also tried and enjoyed. I will buy this again.
