Sep 5, 2007 Bottle; poured a dark brown/black with a frothy medium brown head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel, molasses, and a hint of roastedness. Nice mouthfeel, palate a little light (for style), but worked well. Alcohol completely hidden. Flavors were good, not overly bold, but nice flavors of chocolate, coffee, caramel, roasted malt, vanilla and some general sweetness. Very enjoyable.

Sep 4, 2007 Very full Stout. The head pours tan and thick. With a strong almost chocolate taste. A sure hit for Stout drinkers

Sep 3, 2007 Deep, dark mahogany body that appears black towards the center. Small, off-white head that leaves minimal, spotty lacing. The aroma shows roasted barley, molasses, and burnt caramel malts. The flavor was very roasty, with molasses playing a big part and some cola and cream showing through. I also picked up some vanilla liquor, which was a nice touch. The flavor and aroma were surprisingly void of the chocolate and coffee flavors I was expecting. The body was just a little light for a stout. Clean finish. This is a very nice, unique beer.

I tried this beer on August 27, 2007 at Smokeless Joe’s in Toronto. The beer poured a dark chocolate brown into a unibroue tulip glass with a very generous brown head. The aroma was reminiscent of malt, chocolate, and coffee. The mouthfeel is thick with mild carbonation. The flavour was very good, some malt and coffee hints.

Aug 27, 2007 Flaske. Rigtig lækker stout med både god farve brændthed og balance, men kunne ikke finde de eksotiske toner. Ellers udemærket øl

Aug 25, 2007 This is a fantastic beer. Very creamy texture. The high alcohol content is not noticed in the taste. The flavor is of chocolate and mocha.
