On tap barrel aged version specialy brewed for AFK tavern elves vs dwarves night. Pours a dark brown color with a medium tan head that leaves good lacing. Smells of chocolate, roasted malt, and oak. Tastes of chocolate, vanilla, oak and roasted malt. Mouthfeel is creamy and chewy with a thick oily texture. This was really good, reminded me of a hershey special dark bar with slight oak flavor. Too bad thisvis only a one time thing. I was glad I was able to try it.

Sample at the brewery tap room. The beer pours a dark brown-black color with a medium tan head that dissipates slowly. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of malt, chocolate and coffee. Medium-bodied with flavors of roasted coffee, dark chocolate and a touch of hops. The finish is roasty with a slightly bitter chocolate aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Nose of dark earthy cocoa roast coffee. Pours black tan head. Flavors of dark earthy cocoa roasted malts medium.bitterness. smooth dry earthy nice. I drank a whole glass of this and a growler over the course of 3 days. I actually give up. It doesnt mean enough to me. I concede like mitt romney and herman cain Fuck this shit it isnt even fun anymore.

This is rated lower not for the overall quality, but simply for the fact that it advertises itself as a chocolate stout and there is nearly no chocolate character beyond what one finds in any American craft stout. It does show a nice roasted nutty nose, a full body and some dark chocolate and coffee.

Draft at the main street. Pours a chalky faded black with a dense and.creamy tan nitro head. Big ashy bitter chocolate nose, an offbeat.take on a chocolate stout and it works. Crwamy medium body with soft carb. That black patent ashiness is back on the mid palate, along with a dense and.creamy dark chocolate and.cocoa blast that carry right through to the finish.

On tap at buckleys in queen anne. nitro pour. superb. a rich and thick chocolate stout indeed. Sweet buy balanced hoppiness on the finish. none of the cigarette smokiness or chalkiness thats present in a lot of stouts. deep roasty aroma. 8% abv is stealthy.

Let me just first say that I really really wanted to like this beer. I’m a big Manny supporter. Poured at the brewery in a sample glass It showed a beautiful jet-black color with very little head. The aroma was of a very faint roast, coffee, and a tiny hint of light cocoa, cocoa nibs maybe?. The chocolate addition was very slight and in my opinion very trace. To call this a chocolate stout one would expect the cocoa to take on a more central role in the flavor profile i.e. Southern Tier Choklat or Rogue Chocolate Stout, (which by the way both use chocolate extract/liquer additions) rather than as an accompaniment. The gentleman at the counter told me that they have been recently tweaking the recipe and this was one of their experiments. I will have to revisit because right now this seems more like a very muddled Sweet Stout.

My favorite beer at the 2009 Enumclaw Oktoberfest. Beautiful head, beer with body. Chocolate, a little coffee, some roast. Good mouthfeel. All around very good stout Yum!

Beautiful appearance, black and creamy. This is quite tasty. Creamy, roasty, a good thickness and an improved overall score because I’m drinking it with my good friend Lisa.

After trying this twice now, it is time for a rating. Pours a silky black with a beautiful black tinged tanned head (through nitro!). Aroma is mainly light touches of milk chocolate mixed with a bit of roast. Nothing is overly prevalent. Flavor hits is right with subtle notes of milk and dark chocolate, oats, light light coffee, and finishes off with, again, a very subtle roast note that only lingers for a few. While this is in no way mind blowing, it’s a great beer, and a great push into new territories for Georgetown. Yum!
