| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 16, 2005 A wonderful cacophony of flavor. Pours medium brown with a small rocky head, fantastic flavor great feel, something akin to chocolate-y smoothness without the sweetness. I really like this one.

Light chocolate and prune aroma. Flavour-wise one of the most chocolatey beers that I have ever had. Mellows as you get used to it but chocolate is the dominate flavour.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 10, 2005 Dark amber color, spongy tan head. Certainly sweet, brown sugar, some dark fruit, a touch of honey. Very malty, actually a little one-dimensional. Medium bodied, no alcohol prescence but it’s really not all that strong. Pretty pleasant but the whole 500ml gets a little tiring.
