bottle, real sweet chocolate aroma wow, but nothing elseamber, clear, white foam, medium sweetness, lightly bitter, not bad taste but without better malty fullnes. I can feel a bit alcohol. full body, slick feel, soft carbonation, long finish, interesting but not awesome

Bottle 500ml @ yngwie
Pours clear copper with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, sweet licorice, chocolate and sugar. Taste is light to medium sweet and light bitter. Body is light to medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.

Without doubt, the worst beer I have encountered since starting to rate. 500 ml bottle, dark brown, no head. So sweet it made my teeth ache. Horrible synthetic chocolate flavour, and not even good chocolate at that. This shamefully foul brew went down the sink, but unfortunately, I bought two bottles!

Bottle. Pours amber with an off-white head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, fruitiness and cacao. Flavor is sweet and malty with some cacao and caramel. Medium body, average carbonation.

markas101 (1425) - Sheffield, South Yorkshire, ENGLAND - NOV 23, 2011
50 cl bottle, Sheffield, UK. Amber colour, hot chocolate powder aroma with underlying floral spice. Somewhat velvet-like texture, some hop brightness with more hot-chocolate emerging, then a bitter hit at the finish. More of a chocolate infused bitter than a porter it seems, and slightly artificial in flavour, but not offensive.

suprchunk (783) - Heinsberg, GERMANY - OCT 27, 2011
Light tan colored pour. Small off-white head, doesn’t last, doesn’t leave lacing. A caramel, malty and chocolate aroma. Taste is like chocolate liqueur. Horrible fake chocolate aftertaste.

superflyguy (208) - West Yorkshire, ENGLAND - OCT 17, 2011
horrible. quite simply smells and tastes like a vat of synthetic chocolate has been poured into a thin watery beer. Pours a strange dark amber brown with minimal head. the smell and taste reminded me of chocolate Hubba Bubba bubblegum. For me anything else which may or may not be in the beer is totally overpowered by the chocolate addition. I’d probably even avoid cooking with this as the taste seemed so artificial. big disappointment

Bottle @ chriso. Pours a dark amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty chocolate aroma. Fruity weak roasted malty chocolate flavor. Has a fruity malty caramel and chocolate finish.
