Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout

Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, and a touch of alcohol. Flavor is the same with a smooth, rich palate.

Bottle, winter 06/07. Black and opague. Roast, dark chocolate and a hint of licorice in the aroma. Malty, salty flavor with licorice, cacao and dark chocolate, coming up strongly in the aftertaste. Full bodied, just a bit alcoholic, but well balanced.

This is a solid stout, but for an Imp. Stout it was not as chocolately as I expected. Came from the tap at Oldsmar Tap House, aged 1 year. The aroma was of chicory and chocolate, but the aroma was a bit evasive. This deep black brew had an expresso taste with a slightly bitter finish. Not my thing, but a good occasional beer.

12 ounce bottle- poured out a motor-oil black with a moderate brown head that left ringed lacing throughout the glass. Aroma was rich dark chocolate and dried fruit. Taste was perfect for a chocolate stout, all rich dark chocolate and roasted malt. Palate was excellent, thick and smooth. A keeper in my book. (For whatever reason, I kept thinking that this would be great with a slice of hot apple pie...go figure.)

Thanks to Lem for the taste--Poured a rich deep black body with healthy tan head. Nutty, chocolate, roasty, full-on nose, Hoppy, bitter, yummy, rich flavor. I loved this brew.

Ok, Simply this beer is amazing, This is the best the Brooklyn Brewery has to offer. The aroma makes you fall in love with it, this is how i came to the conclusion of buying this beer. I work at a wholefoods in NY and we had a big display of it in the winter and customer knocked a 6 pack off the display which made me wanna cry, but the aroma was glorious, chocolate, cola, vanilla, plums, and amazing. After that i bought a whole case for me and my friends to enjoy. appearance was real dark with a light brown head. immense rich chocolate flavor and a tad sweetness which complimented the chocolate well. my overall impression is that this is an amazing beer, and if you disagree come to my house and ill give you 1 to try cause i have 3 cases to hold me off until the brooklyn brewery releases it again next winter.

This opaque dark brown ale poured with a bubbly tan head and a plum aroma. There is a very rich chocolate and roasted malt flavor that remains on the palate for some time. It could be categorized as a sweet brown ale. It provides a perfect finish to a great meal - better than dessert.

Bottle, Cornelius, Edinburgh 19/07/08 (somehow managed to resist drinking it for the last two weeks) Pours solid black with a bubbly, tan head that disappears pretty quickly. Deep dark roasted chocolate/coffee aroma with fruity notes. Tastes rich burnt chocolate/coffee with just the right level of sweetness. Truly an amazing beer - 3rd bottle this year...why can’t you get more of the Brooklyn range in Scotland?!
