The Goose Bump pours a solid black with about a finger of creamy, light brown head. Head drained pretty quickly to a bare skim. Some sharp roast coming through on the aroma. Has a little bit of a burnt character and some sweet chocolate. Noticeable alcohol but blends well with the other elements. Some dark fruit.
My first impression is that it is rather sweet and surprisingly smooth. Some subtle chocolate and caramel finish out with an alcohol bitterness. Some roast character lingers in the mouth a bit. Thin body and very drinkable.
Doesn't pack much of a punch for an imperial stout. However, it is impressive to have a beer so high in alcohol and smooth at the same time.
