does not count  Feb 26, 2007 Dark reddish brown; near black, body with very light aroma of chocolate and coffee. Initial zesty acidic flavor with surprisingly clean, refreshing finish. My all-time personal favorite.

Aug 6, 2006 New Belgium is onto something with the 1554. A dark beer that you can drink even when it is 100 F. Wonderful mouth feel, a hint of chocolate sweetness, fantastic!

Mar 5, 2008 My favorite black ale. Weyerbacher’s Black Hole aspires to this but misses the light touch and winds up too cough-syrupy. 1554 can be guzzled or sipped non-stop, in a word: drinkable. Also, has a bit of alcohol sting on top so you don’t notice the low content.

May 29, 2006 Updated: Jan 22, 2007Black. Heavy but smooth with a good hearty aftertaste. Full flavored and wonderfull. Tastes amazingly the same from the bottle or tap.
