Had it at the brewery. Really enjoyed the taste, I liked the hints of chocolate and coffee. It finishes nice and smooth.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On-tap.
A - Dark black color with a creamy, smooth, cafe colored head. Nice stickiness with a decent lace left.
S - Definitely strong chocolate aroma. Sweet cream and a faint hint of coffee. A touch of roasted malt and sweetness.
T - Like the aroma, this has a lot of chocolate flavors. Ovaltine chocolate flavor with a sweet creaminess. Hints of roasted malt and coffee but these are definitely overshadowed.
M - Medium to light body with average carbonation. Quite smooth and creamy.
D - Easy to drink and not cloying. Chocolate heavy and therefore a little out of balance but not bad.
Notes: Nice, smooth creamy and chocolaty beer. Not cloying but a little on the sweet side. Not amazing but an enjoyable sweet tasting stout. Good chocolaty flavor, but I wouldn’t want to drink a number of these.

Had this one off tap at brewpub. Poured a pretty dark brown with a thin head. Smelled and tasted strongly of coffee, chocolate, and oats. Somewhat watered down, and might have been a little bit green. Overall, the flavor was pretty good, it just need to be a little more full.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Coffee and grainy. Nice roasted barley character with a little soft chocolate flavor comprises the dark malts. Something is a little off, might be a bit green.
