Through a dark forest, across a rotting drawbridge, in a dusty castle, there is an altar. On this syrup-stained altar are remnants of decadent treats from days’ past – candy bars, fresh pastries, splotches of powdered sugar. All have been offered, cordially, to those who delight in the gustation of such sweet treats.

This offering we make to you is a pitch black Imperial Stout loaded to the brim with chocolate. It has the texture of a melting ice cream sundae on a moonless night and the complexity of hedge maze made by a madman.

3.71/5  rDev -4.9%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.75
Appearance: Pours a very dark brown, near black body. It never pulls in too much head formation during the pour and very quickly settles too an ultra-thin ivory ring.

Smell: Aromatically slanted towards the chocolate addition backed by vanilla extract.

Taste: Starts with a particularly sweet blitz of chocolate sauce and vanilla-infused sugar. Some darkened, lightly roasty grains underneath along with a smidgen of alcoholic heat, but it's pretty much chocolate sauce injected with vanilla, a taste that, along with some simple syrup-esque sweetness, lingers in the warming aftertaste.

Mouthfeel: Medium-plus body. Low carbonation. Somewhat sticky mouthfeel.

Overall: It's alright. You open a sixteen ounce can and that's that, at least with something like a bottle of Godiva liqueur, you can pop the top back on and have some later.
