Brewed by Brewery Ommegang (Moortgat)

[Tap] Pours pitch black with a dark brown head. Aroma is like acrid cocoa beans, a touch of yeast, and bittersweet chocolate. Flavor is pretty much solid semi-sweet chocolate. Somewhat dry mouthfeel. Really an awesome dessert beer.

Pours with a black body with a large, rocky brown head with good lacing. Aroma of chocolate, belgian yeast, smoke, tobacco, coffee, metal and vanila. Taste is chocolate, lots of smoke, leather belgian yeast. A bit dry and lively carbonation for a stout. A roasty stout.

On tap at Eli Cannon’s. Dark pour. Rich, solid flavor - tobacco, chocolate, hops, coffee, leather. Delicious and worth looking for!

Sample at J Gumbos Aug 2008 Indy tasting - Aroma is fruity with dry chocolate and incense. Flavor matches with some roasted dark malts showing up in the finish. Palate is dusty. Tasty enough but not something I would want to drink very much of.

Bottle from South Bay Drugs. Appearance was an appetizing dark black stout with fat head of foam. The initial nose is a dark roasted malt with minimal hints at chocolate or margarine. In the flavor there is a crisp roasted malt profile that surprisingly isn’t very strong or over bearing, however, the amount of chocolate present is insufficient to the title of the beer. I do taste a light background of chocolate milk but it’s just not enough than the caliber I had expected. Finish is dry and has a light creamy smooth palate.

A very delicious stout. Imperial stouts kind of trained my brain to expect every stout to be over the top boozy and undrinkable. This beer helps me remember that a stout can be drinkable and full of flavor without being too alcoholic. Aroma was OK. Bitter roasted malt and just a hint of chocolate. Pour was perfect. A deep dark brown with a huge pillowy tan head that looks like it could hold a penny if you dropped it on there. Taste was all roasted malt. Could not pick up much chocolate in the front but the aftertaste makes you feel like you just ate coffee crusted dark chocolate candy. Very nice.

This beer pours a dark chocolate brown with a milk chocolate head.Nose is of french roast coffee! Flavor is of a full bodied Ale with a tad of dark chocolate. great balance! Oh!mmegang! This is tasty!
