Commercial Description:
This is the famous Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, our award-winning rendition of the Imperial Stout style once made exclusively for Catherine the Great. We use three mashes to brew each batch of this beer, achieving a luscious deep dark chocolate flavor through a blend of specialty roasted malts. We brew it every year for the winter season. It is delicious when newly bottled, but also ages beautifully for years.

A delicious Imperial Stout with a velvetty chocalote feel to it. Rich and robust, I came upon it randomly during the summer. Kind of thick, like motor oil, but tastes much better. Touch choice between this and Old Rasputin.

Very dark brown, huge beige-brown head. Dark coffee, bitter chocolate, sugar in the aroma. Taste more bitter chocolate than the aroma suggests. I might be high, but this is good!

A late night purchase at the Ship & Mitre in Liverpool, this is very tasty and frankly better than any of the cask beers they had available. It’s a velvety very dark brown with a sweet and boozy aroma, and it tastes powerfully of chocolate (what a surprise) with a bitterness that lingers for ages.

Bottle courtesy of Santa. :D Pours a rich black with a nice burnt brown head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted barley, chocolate malt, dark fruits and a little alcohol are present. Flavor is bittersweet cocoa, coffee, licorice, nuts, dark fruits and a little hop bitterness. Roasted coffee and chocolate bitterness linger in the finish. Very nice Imperial Stout.
