Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout

Pours thick, syrupy and black/brown. Aroma is alcoholic, malty, chocolate and coffee. Drinks incredibly thick and viscous, sticky like honey. Taste is coffee, malt, bitter cocoa, . Dark bitter chocolate comes through at the end and leaves a long bitter hot alcoholic finish. Complex and tasty, but the alcohol is a little over the top.

Bonus bottle from FlssmrBrewAlum, Thanks Adam. Pours black with a thin mocha head.. Aroma is some caramel and dark fruits. Very sweet smelling.... Taste is slightly sweet in the beginning and finishes with some dark chocolate and tobacco.. Very smooth..

Quite smooth black beer. Harmonius balance between sweetness and bitterness. Chocolate coffee aroma. Roasted malt. Flat in carbonation. Alcohol is not obtrusive although it’s strong. Dark black color, brownish head.

My dad came to me saying...son.. I really dont like these chocolate beers...dont you want them... ohh yeaaahh daddy oh... I like’em. This one I think was the first Chocolate Stout I ever tasted and it took part of forming my univers into realizing that beers could be something else than pale lagers. This is a bottle from the winter season 06/07. The pour is brown to black with a nice coffee-chino coloured fluffy head. The nose is coffee, chocolate and tobacco - the alcohol-scient is whiskylike topped with some brown sugar. The mouthfeel is grandios and creamy as hell. The finish is really bitter with hoppy notes and the primary taste is packed with tar, oily alcohol, wooden stuff, some coffee and chocolate My dad should have known that this beer (if you dont like’em) would be the perfect co-ingredience for an excellent Chilli Con Carne.

355 ml bottle. Malmö, Sweden. Pitch black colour with small light brown head. Dark chocolate, roasted malt and portwine in aroma. Roasted burnt malts, ash, warming alcohol, bitterness in complex flavour. Dark chocolate in aftertaste. Rich. Oily palate.

2007-08 version... Look is black with only a hint of brown. Enormous, puffy cocoa-brown head. Thick gobs of brown lace. Roasted but also sweet. Robust dark coffee aroma. Hints of dark chocolate. Smells dark and thick, burnt and harsh. There is a touch of dark grape smell. Blast of burnt malt, chocolate layer on top. Heavy strong coffee with a shot of strong whiskey alcohol flavor.. Alcohol flavor gives a sharp bite akin to a barleywine. Feels thick and oily. Leaves a sharp, alcoholic film. It’s a hard swallow. It’s not a smooth, creamy stout. It’s harsh, strong and full of alcohol.

Bottle. Black pour with a nice beige head on top. Roasty, chocolate aroma. Coffee, chocolate, malty, roasty, very rich tasting stout. This is a top quality brew from Brooklyn.

lovely dry bitter stout with chocale overtones,tad thin for the strength but a world class example of the style
