HogTownHarry (3922), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Oct 24, 2009 Updated: Oct 29, 2009(bottle ( 22oz ). shared by jerc & mabel at October 2009 WaterlooWeekend. Thick, slick, black-looking pour, small brown head. Lovely creamy, mildly lactic aroma, hint of hint and rich chocolate - smooth. Taste - wow - so smooth, HOW is this 8%? Tastes like 4 .... cream, Belgian chocolate, light mint/herbal bittering, mostly chocolate and light mocha - terrific. Smooth, creamy, lightly carbonated - silky and balanced and so, so good. MrPickles (106), Wisconsin, USA Oct 22, 2009 22oz bottle. Pours black with mocha brown head. The aroma is somewhat roasty with a good amount of sweetness and a touch of raisin and date notes. Taste is a mix of cream and roast. Very some smooth and creaminess mouth feel, but not a overly thick. Very nice drinkable beer. nickd717 (1265), Palo Alto, California, USA Oct 13, 2009 Bomber shared by largadeer on BA - thanks, Chris! Pours pitch black with a medium tan head.
