Pours a dark brown with a light brown head that stays around for quite a while. Bakers chocolate and cocoa in the nose with some funkiness roasted malts. Wow this tastes like chocolate. Like pure cocoa powder. A light bitterness and roastiness from the cocoa. But really sweet. This is a desert that would be best at two or three sips, anything else and you’ve had enough. Interesting beer though. drowland (1448), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 22, 2008 On tap at Ginger Man. Aroma of rich semi-sweet chocolate, roasted malt, coffee. This is the third time I’ve had this, and the flavor turned a bit more to sweet/artificial chocolate than I had remembered. Still nothing arrestingly negative about it though, so I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt. Mouthfeel remains silky smooth throughout. Very nice. HonkeyBra (1404), Lemont, Illinois, USA
