2017 Bravo - Imperial Brown Ale
Deep caramel brown with light brown head. Dark nose with caramelized brown sugar, molasses, and honey with a little heat. Can tell it's a a high alcohol level get drunk from just smelling it. A little creamy and syrupy too. Full bodied and long finish. Could easily go with some dessert. — 8 years ago

My favorite non-nitro stout. Flavor notes are perfect and well balanced. It’s what stouts of this variety should aspire to be — 7 years ago
The standard expression is very good, but the barrel aged version is out of this world amazing. I was only able to get my hands on one can so I won't be able to asses how it ages, but even young it is exceptional. — 8 years ago
Don't get any on your clothes. This shit is dark. Dark fruit aroma. A flavor bomb of coffee, licorice, chocolate, and muscovado. The mouthfeel is like you're eating a piece of fudge. Most excellent. 12% abv $4.00 16oz can Chucks Hop Shop — 9 years ago

The pumpkin is not overwhelming, and is balanced by the strong stout flavor and moderate hops. Try it. — 10 years ago

The best creamy beer I've ever had. — 8 years ago
Pours a thick dark black with almost no head. Chocolate, vanilla, coffee, molasses, and bourbon all playing nicely with each other with no one flavor overpowering the others. A very nice barrel aged stout. — 8 years ago
One of the most overhyped beers ever! — 8 years ago
Like Guinness, with a mocha aftertaste. — 9 years ago

Vanilla is the first thing that hits you. The caramel adds a certain sweetness to the taste. I would literally drink this all the time if I could get it. Dark, tasty, perfection. — 10 years ago

Thank you to my good friend Andy Bunch for bringing this beer to try tonight. A rare treat for sure. Took a while to open up, bit man, it’s hitting its stride a couple hours later with notes of semi sweet chocolate, espresso liquor, brownie batter, vanilla, toasted nuts and almond oil. A rich brew with a 15%+ ABV. Black as old motor oil and super mouth coating. Yum yum yum. — 7 years ago
