mgumby10 (1379), West Palm Beach, Florida, USA May 4, 2008 Courtesy hopscotch. Pours a dark brown/black, with a monster, foamy light brown head. I got a little tartness in it up front which scared me a bit. Some definite chocolate malt and toasted malts were evident though. The flavor was highly carbonated, some chocolate was there, but to be called a triple chocolate stout I was expecting a chocolate bomb. A little bit tart and fruity as well which Im not sure was supposed to be there. Overall drinkable, but forgetable a the same time. brewblackhole (1178), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA May 4, 2008 Lots of Roasted grain and malt,no real chocolate coming through,taste comes at you like bitter bakers chocolate and roastedness,and settles into heavy grain roasted malt and old chocolate cake,in itself ,not a bad stout,but very deceiving to put the words Triple Chocolate with it. You expect a Southern Tier Choklat type full chocolate body,not in this batch nhorween (439), New York, New York, USA Apr 23, 2008 12 oz. Dark pour with a thin head. Light aroma - cocoa, light hops - rather subdued. Good flavor for the style, easy to drink. Medium body, dry finish. Nothing mind blowing, but not bad. georgekappus (296), Brookfield, Connecticut, USA Apr 21, 2008 Bottle. Pours a deep dark black chocolate. Aroma was chocolate and roasted coffee. The taste was muted sweet chocolate and coffee like a mocha java. The palate was a little bit thinner than expected. darkninja67 (37), Boston, Massachusetts, USA Apr 18, 2008 750 bottle. Pours a deep black with a thin head. Tastes thin and not rich or heady at all for a chocolate stout. Drinkable but nothing great compared to Speedway, Choklat, or Rogue Chocolate stout.
