A: Pours a dark, nearly opaque black color. A tan head rises to about a finger, and recedes after a minute.
S: Roasted malts, coffee, chocolate. All the malty aromas you would expect.
T: Oh, the malt character here is so much more nuanced. Light roast, more toasted malts and baked bread. Espresso coffee, dark bakers chocolate. Its all around very warming.
M/O: A full body with moderate carbonation, that becomes ultra smooth. Not overly viscous or heavy, but the perfect amount of silky smoothness. A warming, slow sipper for sure.

The difference between a porter and stout, let alone an "imperial" port and stout has always been a bit murky for me. Though this is a good example for an Imperial Porter. Big alcohol that is warming, plenty of malt characters, but not overly roasted and not over viscous. Which can always be a personal taste thing, and certainly a bit vague. Though, in this case, I think it works great as a descriptor, and just well made all around. Even for the ABV, I want to come back and have some more.
