3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Deep brown-black pour. The nose is softly sweet. A little bit cocoaish and chewy. Earthy and cocoaish with a nice earthy chocolate flavour. A touch of light leathery character and a little bit of nice saltiness. The palate is very clean and the roastiness is restrained. Soft, chewy and very tasty.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
on tap at Buckeye for Valentines day, added with Cocoa Nibs, Cherries and Sumatra beans as well, titled "Kiss Beer"
Super black head, with each sip bringing forward a more prominent flavor first sip is roasted malt, second sip is hard sour cherry flavor, third is some light hoppiness and fourth yielded a smoothness from the chocolate, quite tasty for the rest of the pint though I never got more cherry.. Not bad I can see this beer taking a lot of effort to make.

Sample at Buckeye Beer Engine. Black pour with a medium tan head. Metallic nitro nose with some roast and chocolate. Malty flavor with chocolate and caramel with a roasty bitter finish. Pretty decent. Would like to have gotten a little more out of the nose, but good overall.
