Wow! this brew was great. Full-bodied but not too heavy. Tastes like a smooth chocolate coffee. You won’t even taste the alcohol

Pours a jet black with a quickly disappearing tan head. Weak grape aroma. Flavour is sweet and the high alcohol content gives a very warm, but not overpowering feeling. Aftertaste is a gentle sweetness that makes your mouth water. Overall a nice, warming, sweet beer, perfect for the winter.

330 ml bottle. Pours a dark brown almost black with foamy brown head and beautiful cascading effect. Bit of sour red grape aroma with a fruity alcohol undertone. Very smooth, bit of a chocolatey bitternes. Roasted mocha flavor. Nice warming character. Great stout.

Bottle from World Market. Lovely black coloring with ruby outlines. Slightly sweet oily aroma. Flavor is quite sweet up front. Thick and oily. Roasted maltiness with a bit of dark fruits and raisins. Very easy drinking. Light alcohol kick at the end.

Pours nearly opaque black with a fairly big creamy brown head. The aroma is very malty with pale and roasted malts coming through, along with hints of sweetness and chocolate. Flavor is roasty, with chocolatey coffee hints as well as a slight bitterness and some good roasty finish.

This was an average stout for me. Awesome price. A must try. Had this at a beer taste recently.
