furious (9), South Carolina, USA does not count Jun 29, 2009 Had once at a restaurant. It started off as a good beer - I liked it at first. But as I kept drinking, it wasn’t as pleasant. Can’t pinpoint why. I should probably try it again sometime. zappafan99 (462), Ascension Island Jun 25, 2009 Taste 6/9 Bottle. Looks: Dark and clear with rings of tan foam. Aroma and Taste: Peat and smoke with burn toast and and malty sweetness. Spice, sour and fruit with the finish. beerledgend (919), Meadowbank Auckland, New Zealand Jun 25, 2009 dark brown in colour with lively off white head. Coffee/choclate aroma. Creamy choclate mouthfeel, hint of hop bitterness. WVHouseofBeer (341), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA Jun 24, 2009 Pours black with minimal off white head. Smells of roasted malts and chocolate, and the flavor is chocolaty with a hint of coffee and carmel. Very light body. This beer could be mistaken for a stout if it were a little thicker. elgavilancillo (63), South Gate, California, USA Jun 23, 2009 nice chocality taste and aroma loved it creamy frothy coffe finish would really enjoy in the winter time Avengedpoet (325), Mesa, Arizona, USA Jun 23, 2009 Sampled before, this taste at Made in the Shade 2009. Pours near black with minimal head. Minor roast character in the aroma and taste. Very minor belgian yeast influence in the taste as well. Very refreshing considering it is dark and "belgian." I think they used caraffa and a very low phenol yeast to get around these though, so I wouldn’t necessarily label it as either. TheGrandMaster (1848), Auckland, New Zealand Jun 22, 2009 Bottle (in NZ). Pours a cola-brown with a light tan head. Plenty of roasted malt and bitter chocolate on the nose. Chocolate and roasted malt again in the mouth, a touch of graininess. Quite a light mouthfeel, with a short finish. Tasty enough, without much complexity.
