From the brewer

Vicious and viscous, this menacing brew pours opaque black with a creamy maduro-colored head. Its aroma offers seductive whiskey, chewy red wine, dark fruit and lavish tobacco. Berserker Imperial Stout invades your taste buds with in-your-face flavor. Weighing in at almost 13% alcohol by volume, Berserker is completely out-of-control. Give it a good fight.

I guess there may be such a thing as too long in the cellar; this poured a profound black and had all the sweet umami of a Berserker, but with less creaminess and completely flat. I was able to appreciate the smooth complexity, but it wasn't exactly joyful to drink.

Dry sweet strong molasses burnt flavors.

Molasses. Thick, heavy molasses. Like the time Boston was covered in molasses.

This is very sweet though not obnoxious like the first nail. But I'm kind of sweeted out, so terhaps you should take this review with a grain of salt.

A great barrel aged stout but this is a competitive category.

Coats tongue with a maple taste and residue. Sappy mouth feel.

Even better on draft, hard as that is to imagine.

Delicious, thick bourbon-toffee stout with a silky cocoa mouthfeel and a whole lot besides going on. It's a hammer to the face but a super-well-balanced hammer - MADE OUT OF ALCOHOL. You guys, I could drink this forever, although I'd probably be dead after just a couple.
