Samuel Smith’s
Imperial Stout

The appearance of this beer is a good solid black. It pours a dark tan creamy head that has stayed about an eight of an inch solid for a while now.
The smell is a very sweet carmel malt - strong bitter molasses scent.
Coffee nut molasses flavor. A very robust chocolate malt rum taste.
Mouth feel is very creamy and smooth. Carbonation not too big, and the alcohol feel isn’t upfront or immediate. Finishes very smooth, no real bite to this beer whatsoever.
Overall, this is a good Imperial Stout. A nice heavy drinkable beer. This beer weighs in at 7% abv, and is a perfect winter warmer for a cold December night.
