COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
When empirical and creative impulses collide, the result is often timeless. The classic utility-art aesthetic of the coffee maker is an example of design and engineering working in concert. It is through similar cooperation that the simple bitter cocoa bean is transformed into a sweet treat. As scientists, our brewers utilize their materials to exacting standards. As artists, they couldn’t resist the temptation to combine the best flavors of two of our highly acclaimed Blackwater Series Imperial Stouts, Jahva and Choklat. Alone each is perfect, but together as Mokah, they are an inimitable expression of two of the world’s most sought after flavors. Enjoy Mokah stout with - or as - your favorite dessert! Cheers!

Keg Handpump at the White Horse, Parsons Green 06/08/2010 Big chocolate aroma. Black a little rich on the palate and strong in alcohol with a hint of dryness in a bitter chocolate roast finish.

ExpendableHero (196) - Florida, USA - SEP 6, 2010
Quite good. Very dark Coke-like pour with a decent tan head. Robust coffee and chocolate aromas. Taste is extremely rich dark chocolate mixed with coffee beans. Very straightforward, no hidden tastes or strange aftertastes. Just the dark chocolate which gives it nice bitterness and the coffee. Very tasty brew. Bottle purchased at Cork & Bottle in Miami.

rollingwood (42) - Maryland, USA - SEP 5, 2010
Pours opaque and dark and greets you with an intense chocolate/toffee bouquet. The body is full, sweet and alcoholic, intense and with a long finish. But, the balance is somewhat off-kilter for my taste, a bit like a liquified candy bar with alcohol. I guess i’d rather enjoy these foods separately (beer and chocolate) or in a way that is more harmoniously combined.

HopKitty (23) - Nashville, Alabama, USA - SEP 3, 2010
Smells like a chocolate ice cream cone that fell into a vat of alcohol. Nice opaque black body. Tastes like bitter baker’s chocolate. Smells sweeter than it tastes. Bottle at Sunset corners, Miami.

Rustyham (936) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - SEP 3, 2010
Gloriously delicious aroma of coffee, cream, and roasted marshmallows. flavor is very hot, alcoholic, and more roasted marshmallows. Incredibly not real food. Bottle from Sunset Corners, Miami.

Zenwolf (114) - Waterloo, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 1, 2010
Bottle. Great brew. Random bottle pick while in the states.. defiantly a Java brew.. rich and frothy beige head. Solid chocolate and espresso flavors. What keeps this from being higher IMHO is the balance between the chocolate and the coffee.. its not quite right.. excellent.. but not fantastic.

Habanero (748) - Tranbjerg, DENMARK - SEP 1, 2010
UPDATED: SEP 5, 2010 Draught at The Cockneys Pub. Opaque deep brown body, nearly black with a red glow and with a medium sized, creamy, tan head. Fair lacings. Nose of chocolate, vanilla and roasted malt. Sweet flavour with roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and vanilla.Low carbonation. Full bodied. Oily texture. Slightly malt bitterness with notes of alcohol in the end. Enjoyable.

FatPhil (4203) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - AUG 31, 2010
Bottle (GBBF2010)
6 Aroma certainly mocha, would be a 7 but also comes over as very sweet, which doesn’t bode well.
4 Almost black, small brief tight head.
5 Absurdly sickly sweet chocolatey taste. Yikes - where’s the beer?
2 Not just sugary, but with fizzy carbonation too - oh gawd, this is a drink for kids with no sophistication in their palate at all.
10 I could make this at home from home-baking ingredients and a splash of completely tasteless polish potato vodka.
