Commercial Description:
Here's a great beer if you enjoy the great robust flavor of a stout, combined with the flavor of cocoa beans!

Actually, I was surprised. This was not bad. The flavor was oily chocolate, with this thin, watery Guinness-like malt astringency. Granted, this beer was somewhat one-dimensional in the chocolate aspect, being a chocolate beer and all, yet it still displayed a hint of fruitiness and a touch of bitterness. Actually not that bad at all. Surprised pleasantly. However, this beer had a slight, nut brown bubbly head like the remnants of dish soap left in a sink too long. Decent!

Draft sample. Warm chocolate nose, a thin tan head over a black body. Light on cocoa taste, and I’m finding this be very nutty for some reason. Some bitterness there, but otherwise light for a stout, and the chocolate seems out of place here.
