Draft (Beer gas), Flying Saucer, Cordova, TN. Pleasantly surprised. I wasn’t expecting it to be that good. I know this is going to sound redundant, but this really is like a chocolate Guinness. Very nice. My wife hates beer, but I think after I make her try this she may like it. Believe it or not, the Saucer serves a float - This stuff over ice cream! Now I’ve seen it all. Get one!

Poured on Nitrogen tap. Beer has a wonderful chocolate aroma with no hop aromas. Beer is very mild but drinkable. Flavors are chocolate and malt with not hop presence. Beer has hints of sweetness. Very drinkable beer.

(10/24/08) Draught at Blind Tiger in New York. Black-colored with a small creamy stable beige head. Aroma full of chocolate, roasted malt, milk-coffee notes and some nutty hints. Sweet flavor with roasted malt, a bit of dark chocolate but mostly milk chocolate, some sugary hints and a slightly drier finish. Medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. A nice quaffable Stout.

Great semi-sweet chocolate medium finish is what convinced me of this beer’s enjoyability.

Growler pour, which was pitch black. Nose was raisins, alcohol, vanilla, coffee, and of course chocolate. I was surprised as to the somewhat thinner mouthful., and very smooth up front. A bitter flavor dominates throughout with the nose flavors ringing through. Very drinkable.
