Jul 15, 2009 Brown body white head. Decent aroma of toasted malts and chocolate. Flavor has some nice roasted malt notes with chocolate and coffee, maybe a bit of nuttiness. Palate is thick enough, but not syrupy. I liked this one, but it’s not particularly memorable.

Jul 14, 2009 12 oz bottle from Jeffy. Pours a rather unimpressive dark dirty brown body with a small whispy biege head. Aroma is roasty with slight coffee and chocolate. Flavor is very roasty overall with notes of coffee, nutts, brown toast and hops. Medium bodied and average carbonation that has a cramy mouthfeel. Very nice.

Jul 7, 2009 Sweet dark roasty malt aroma with some hoppiness. Milk chocolate and grape jelly. Dark brown color with a brownish head. Flavors are lightly bitter and dry with a light crisp palate. Some chocolate, some cream, ice coffee, a little burnt toast, and some berries. Palate is light but duration lingers. A little thin but good overall. Easy to drink more than one.

Jul 4, 2009 Cocoa and brown sugar aroma. Dark brown, clear, thin tan head. Immensely chocolatey, but little else. There may also be a little woodiness, but definitely chocolate rules the day. The only transition to be found is merely from cocoa to dark chocolate. Thin mouthfeel. Tasty and unique, but painfully single minded.
