The beer pours jet black in a snifter glass, with a deep tan head. Rose buds make their presence felt on the aroma, vying for attention with bitter chocolate, cocoa powder, creamy malt, burnt fruit and notes of Turkish Delight and marshmallow. Smooth creamy malt coats the mouth with continuing notes of earthy rose buds, Turkish Delight and burnt fruit, all underpinned by peppery hops. This ale is Bottle Conditioned.

"Fullers beers are my first choice always, 1845 and Golden Pride being my favourites, tried Imperial Stout for the first time and it did not disappoint, it was smooth, flavourful, and a delight to drink, hoping to see it stocked in my local Waitrose soon."
"I bought 8 bottles of black cab stout, its not a bad pint Not as heay as Guiness and not such a white head, easier to poor You dont want to store it in a fridge though, room temperature is fine I've done several review on Fuller beers, never got this 5 quid discount though"
"I am not a big fan of stout but drink it occasionally. This one i found to be very beautiful i loved the flavour and so did my partner who doesn't like stout very much. I would recommend anyone to give it a try and think they may enjoy it."
"I was very surprised on my first sip. Strong & chocolaty with a thick consistency; this is what a stout should be."
"Iam not a big beer drinker but the Imperial Stout is delicious might try some of your other beers"
"This is a special one off stout plenty of flavour and seriously strong, just sip this brew and enjoy the experience"
"I really enjoyed the six bottles that I bought. So much so that I bought another six whilst they are still available! A lovely thick black beer that tastes of roast malt and dark fruit. There is a good balance between hops and malt and a satisfying chocolate note."
"Has to rate as one of the best beers I can remember drinking. Dark, fulsome without being cloying, malty, and yes, amazingly I did get a nose-spin of rose. Congratulations, a beauty!"
"I tried this stout by lucky mistake first time in a pub around 8 years ago and tried to get it again, which was really hard to do as it is very rare and seasonal. Really good and sweet, with Turkish delight aftertaste. Please enjoy it responsively as it is a very strong drink."
"Lovely Imperial Stout this, strong mix of flavours with a nice thick body. Lovely presentation box as well"
