COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Chocolate malt and roasted barley provide the dark color and fully body of chocolate stout. Toasy accents and a hoppy dryness add to this smooth brew. An old time favorite you’ll remember.

This stout poured a deep black colour with a big, creamy/rocky, tan coloured head. To the nose there are scents of cocoa, coffee, cream, smoke and burnt malts. first sip was smooth and had a thin mouthfeel. Flavours of smoke and light cocoa most prodominant with caramel and coffe coming in a close second. Finish is burnt with smoke and molassass flavours lingering.

skoll (339) - Traverse City, Michigan, USA - JAN 12, 2012
Poured a nice thick black, with a heavy off-white head. Smelled fantastic and spicy. Notes of coffee, chocolate and raisins. The taste was smoky, and lightly bitter of hops. Undertones of dark chocolate, coffee and a little earthiness resemble that of most porters... The finish was bitter and left a morning coffee-mouth feel. Pretty good.

caralkaline87 (386) - Washington DC, USA - JAN 11, 2012
Pours near black with virtually no head. Nose is strong and coffee and cream, with just light hints of chocolate and a touch of hops. Flavor is a bit too hops and coffee driven to be adequately labelled as "chocolate", and it’s quite thin on top of that. Finish is pretty much not there. Boring.

pauls_parade (298) - Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA - JAN 2, 2012
Black and opaque with brown edges and a ring of tan head around the glass. Chocolate, roasted coffee, toasted malt in the aroma. Full-bodied, quite a bit of carbonation, lingering finish. Dry and roasted flavor, bitter chocolate in the flavor. Could use a little more sweetness in the initial flavor to balance.

Lacking in taste and aroma.....almost smells like a bourbon blended drink. Overall not a very good stout.

Dark brown almost black pour with aromas of roast, toast and rich chocolate. Taste of coffee and chocolate with a dry / bitter finish.
