Too sweet

This is a great imperial stout! Smokey chocolatey and mildly sweet. A good balance.

Much mellower than expected from Lagunitas. An enjoyable Stout, and Imperial one at that. Very sweet, which I enjoy, with a coffee-like character and moderate bitterness that fades over time. Most agreeable for me when warmed up for an hour and a half. A pleasant surprise (though still moderately strong) from a brewer that is generally too intense for my liking.

Nice dark toffee taste

Taste is coffee and alcohol. Not as thick or complex as I'd like. I won't seek it out again. As it warms up, the lack of thickness and complexity begins to be at odds with the overly alcoholy taste.

Very good beer with slightly bitter aftertaste. 9.9% Alc not 8.2%

Slight carbonation, moderately smooth, light-mid body. Malt sweet, chocolate, coffee balance alcohol. Still have a slight burn though. Flavor is short lived. I like the sweetness, but it's not as thick or complex as I like. 3.65
