Commercial Description:
Little Chocolate Doughnuts is a porter with an appealing,, semi-sweet, not-so-bitter, chocolate malt character. This beer was actually "dry-doughnut-ed" in the firkin for a little touch of "HOT NOW" goodness! Brewed by John Pinkerton & Chris Lady.

Pours an almost opaque black color with a very light brown head. Aroma is chocolate, dough, and vanilla. Flavor is roasty, dough, vanilla, chocolate, and a light bitter finish. This was an awesome beer.

Appearance: Black body topped by a thin, wispy khaki-colored head. Smell: Damned if it don’t smell like lil’ chocolate donuts. Taste: Damned if it don’t taste like lil’ chocolate donuts, too! Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Mild carbonation. Drinkability: This is just wonderful.

Cask @ ATL Cask Ale Fest ’08. Tons of chocolate in the nose and on first sip. Reminds me of Rogue Chocolate Stout. Chocolate and vanilla dominant. It does taste like a chocolate doughnut. One of the better beers at the festival.

Cask @ Atl Cask Ale Tasting 2008. Very suprised by this beer as I haven’t had anything good from this brewery ever. Second favorite brew @ the festival. Nice chocolate, malt, and vanilla balance, with an edge towards the chocolate.
