Shared by BDR. Bitter chocolate and malt aroma. Black in color and little carbonation. Flavor is bitter, almost charred with burnt popcorn, chocolate, and malt. No hop presence, which is fine for the style.

Jul 15, 2008 Very dark pour with a dark tan head. Minimal lacing. Nose is of chocolate and coffee.These are nicely mixed in the taste, with a pinch of hops to give it a little kick. Mouthfeel starts out light but deepens. Finish is long, sweet and mellow.

Jul 15, 2008 Bottle. Poured a nice black body with thin head. Aroma is sweet milk chocolate, lgith hops. Flavor is sweet chcolate, sweet maltiness, light coffee. Nice roasty character with a mild sweetness to it. Not as silky or creamy as I would have guessed.

Jul 15, 2008 Pours a shimmering blackish brown with a tan head that settles. not much in the way of lacing. Nose is caramel malt and some hint of coffee. Body is medium with slick chocolate tone. Overall feel is quick. Sweet body flows nicely till coffee bitterness apears and leads to the slightly lingering aftertaste. Finally, another brew that doesn’t overdo it with the coffee. I was hoping for a more abundant nose.

Jul 12, 2008 Nice black pour with a pretty light head. Smell the chocolate, like a Mocha Starbucks drink. Very heavy and varying tones of chocolate, has a nice bite, covers the ABV well. Like a chocolate RIS, which is what I think they were going for.
