Apr 1, 2009 Pours a dark brown with thin white head. Obvious aroma of chocolate, cream, and roasted malt. Flavor is quite pleasant of medium amounts of chocolate, but not overly sweet. Quite a nice drink.

Apr 1, 2009 I enjoyed this. Aroma of chocolate and cream. Fairly light bodied and and copper color. Tasted of chocolate and the typical malty bock flavors. Seemed too light for something with "chocolate" in the name but I enjoyed it!

Mar 31, 2009 Updated: Apr 11, 2009750mL bottle. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is strong with chocolate and roasted malts. I also detected some coffee, vanilla, and dark fruit notes. The flavor was strong with chocolate and had a smooth clean finish. A little expensive, but very tastey.

Mar 31, 2009 From a 750mL Bottle. Pours a transparent deep chocolate brown color with a thick layer of meringue-like, tan head. Clean aromas of soft chocolate and lightly toasted malt waft from the glass, uninterrupted by any unwanted yeast characters. Very chocolatey in a chocolate licorice kind of way. Medium-full bodied, softly carbonated mouthfeel with a rich, silky texture. Chocolate flavors immediately overwhelm the tongue, rich in flavor, but also free of any harsh bitterness qualities or unwanted sweetness. Smooth and easy drinking but full of flavor. Some underlying toasted peanut malt qualities compliment nicely, adding complexity. Hints of licorice and vanilla, along with some peanut brittle. Seems to be lacking that rich bock-like melanoidin quality, but the flavors are satisfying enough to not miss this. Good clean malt and chocolate flavors while maintaining drinkability.

Mar 28, 2009 Pours a fairly dark copper. Very rich and smooth, with a serious chocolate flavor. Quite delicious and very drinkable. It was expensive, $14.95 for a large bottle at Front Street market in Butte Montana, but it is a nice treat. Thumbs way up for this one.

Mar 27, 2009 Poured a very dark brown/red with a small tan head. Aroma mainly of chocolate malts. Flavor was of chocolate malts and a little sweet. Maybe a little watery, but malty. Finish was nice and smooth. Overall very drinkable. Definitely worth trying once, but there are much better beers for the money.

Mar 26, 2009 Pours a dark brown (almost black with some red tint). Thin tan head that disippates quickly. Aroma is strong with chocolate and toffee. Flavor is awesome (if you like chocolate). Lots of chocolate flavor, with some undertones of vanilla and dried cherries. Mouthfeel is incredibly smooth--like liquid silk.
The price and style aren’t something I’d go for every day, but is well worth it for a special occasion.

Mar 23, 2009 Poursa cola colored brown/red with a light tan head. Aroma was chocolate, some malt, but not much else. Flavor was a little flat. A bit of chocolate and not much else. Really underwhelming and one dimensional.
