Rich sweet aroma. Pitch black color. Tan head. Great sweet coffee and cream flavor with a chocolate finish. A great stout.

Sep 6, 2008 Pours jet black with choc orange coloured head. Aromas dominated by coffee and chocolate with hinting dark fruit. Palate is maltier than previously sampled Choc Stout. Displays some liquered fruit and finishes with dry coffee roast and very slight sour tang from oats.

Sep 5, 2008 Quite classical. Chocolate and roast flavours drive the palate quite convincingly. Good balance and well made.

Sep 4, 2008 Dark Amber, modest tan Head, looked just like Mocha porter but with more smoke, less vanilla, and less overall flavor. Too much alike so quite dissappointing for a Brewer of such reputation

Aug 29, 2008 pours a 1\4 inch tan head, and is a beautiful dark non translucent color. aroma contains hints of mocha and toasted malts with metallic undertones. tastes great surprisingly the metallic taste is great with the roasty barly mocha flavors. very smooth on the palate .

Aug 26, 2008 I think this is a great beer, both on tap and out of the bottle. Pours a dark black with a huge tan head. Oatmeal and bitter chocolate dominate the nose, with a slight hint of coffee. Flavor is chocoffee with a bitter finish. A little light for a stout, but the flavor is excellent. If this were a little heartier, it would rank 4.6-4.8.
