The Westmalle is really good. Nice flavor with enough hops to be noticed but balanced with the yeast and dark fruit and toffee notes.
Also picked up Ten Fidy and Breckenridge Imperial chocolate creame stout.

Not a real fan of Art of Darkness to start. First few sips and it's too hoppy for my taste and the wheat malts are not helping. Maybe I'll sing a different tune later.

Just posted about it recently. Maybe my new favorite DIPA/imperial IPA. Amazing balance and depth to the hops. It makes me smile drinking it. I would even encourage Kraftster to try one. It's so drinkable for a 9.4% beer too. It's not as hoppy as some single IPAs that I've had. The hops are clearly present but no single hope characteristic dominates. There is just something unique about that beer. Great Lakes nailed it.
On a side note, Ballast Point Sculpin is one of my favorite single IPA offerings. I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
