72 Imperial Chocolate Stout by Breckenridge

Yes my friends, according to the Ill-Gotten Booty calendar, it is time for stouts and porters, most especially sweet, or milk, stouts. 72 is a classic milk stout, the "imperial" indicating the higher alcohol content, appropriately 7.2%. 72 pours a deep chocolatey brown with a thick, tan, three-finger head that takes a loooong time to settle down. Lots of chocolate, very malty, with hints of dark toast and some coffee notes as well. Creamy consistency, almost like a chocolate shake. Well done, and a fine February 'fresher.
