Black. Some tan head as poured, with little retention and no lacing. Bit rubbery / tonka bean, and soy sauce aroma. Bit ‘maple pecan Danish’ taste, rubbery similar after. Thick, but not unpleasantly so, with tiny dull bubbles. Needed a glass of water to clear my mouth before next beer…

Quality: 68.5, Enjoyability: 70.5, Overall: 69.5

Black red. Little light tan head as poured, with very thin halo retention but very good layering. Chocolate, marshmallow, vanilla aroma. Chocolate and biscuit taste, mallow after. Wagon Wheel! Silky, if a little thinner than expected. Almost didn’t review this, as it made the numbers in the current volume wonky, but a) significantly different ABV than previous version (8.5 compared to 10) and b) the older version listed ‘peanut’ while this one doesn’t. Ended up being the best of the night, and of the whole trip...

Rated on 2025-06-12 by BeerDorkNik at BrewDog

Quality: 73, Enjoyability: 71, Overall: 72

Black. Very little dark tan head while pouring, no retention. Think there were bits of Biscoff floating on the surface though. Creamy, Biscoff, booze aroma. Similar, vanilla-bourbon taste and after.

Rated on 2025-05-09 by BeerDorkNik at BrewDog

Quality: 73, Enjoyability: 74, Overall: 73.5

Black. Some clumpy head on pour, more like milk solids than a normal head, good retention and some lacing / dregs (I know I’m not really selling this here…). Cream Egg aroma. Similar taste and after – very sweet, very rich, with a hint of a drier chocolate under. Viscous. Can was damaged in transit, so I had to have immediately (what a hardship…), may not properly reflect usual head / retention.

Quality: 65, Enjoyability: 60.5, Overall: 62.75

Black. Extremely large dark tan head on pour, dispersing, but good retention and lacing. Initial biscuit malt, creamy dark roast malt aroma. Creamy, milder coffee taste, similar but bit acetone after. Creamy nitro smooth bubbles, but disappointingly wet. If this were Black Heart, it’d be fine, but for the Double Stout version, it’s honestly a bit lacking.

Black. Tan halo as poured, with good retention but very little loose lacing. Tonka rubber aroma, ?buttery? under. Sharp but thin, chocolate taste, tangy fruit/blackcurrant after. Oddly light for a 10.5% Impy, especially compared to Imperial Porter from same brewer.

Quality: 69, Enjoyability: 64, Overall: 66.5

Inky black. Some very dark tan head on pour, dispersing, with very little halo retention and no lacing. Confusingly rich aroma - in no way bad, just a lot of it in many different directions.
