Tonight's the night to crack open my Three Floyd's Black Sun Stout. Currently warming up closer to room temp from the fridge...I will update this in a few minutes with the results. From the smell and looks, I'm cautiously optimistic, although the fiendish sun on the label is creeping me out a bit.
RESULTS: Wow, this was a very unique stout. It had the thick black oily-ness of an imperial, the sweet bourbon-y flavor of an oak barrel, and the creaminess of a milk. Crazy. At first you taste the sweet creamy flavor, and as that fades you're hit with some strong hoppy hints. A definite Floyd's brew with all the weird conflicting flavors. Took me a minute to get into it, and it definitely needs to warm up for the flavors to come out, but by the end I was a convert. This was a good beer. If I can find another I'll save one for beer fest.
4/5.
