Affogato stout! Surprised this hasn't been done before.
Nice pour, no drama, lovely jet black body with a half finger of mocha coloured foam.
Scents of vanilla and espresso (duh) with lots of brown sugar and a little chocolate.
Medium bodied, a little lighter than you'd want for an imp stout, but very smooth with little to no carbonation.
Taste is up front sweetness, light chocolate with strong brown sugar. A little vanilla follows but surges forward and as it passes the coffee starts to show itself, a little washed out and suffocated under all the lactose and little sign of the 10%. Lactose is usually a bad sign but I guess it works here with vanilla being a core component.
Nonetheless, not a great imperial, it falls short on too many fronts. It's a good pastry stout at best.
*EDIT* No idea why the photo didn't display but nobody is missing anything.
