12 oz bottle from Bier Stein. Dark brown pour with slight red highlights. Minimal tan head, almost no lacing. Aroma is full of roasted malt, light chocolate and vanilla. Flavor is a lot lighter on chocolate than you’d expect, roast and slight coffee and a little bit of milkiness. Very thin mouthfeel, almost like water before the bitter finish. Not terrible, but I expected more.

i could tell as soon as i poured this that it would be a bit watery for my taste. aroma is faint with some funk and almost no chocolate. it is thin bodied, but does has a few hints of nice taste in there. sort of a bittersweet choco, slight coconuttiness and malaty finish. it is quite refreshing for a stout, and the fact that its organic earns it points. the choco is most noticable in the aftertaste where it lingers and slowly fades nicely.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a dark brown with a warming tint of red and a tall and very lively light brown head. Ashy, burned malt aroma. Medium body with hard roasted malt and an ashy edge. Not much chocolate feel though. Lightly malt bitter finish. 140509

22 fl oz bottle. Pours dark brown with a little orange glare and a slowly collapsing tan head. Dry chocolate, light roasted and vague vanilla aroma. Mild spiced, chocolate, vague vanilla and roasted malt. Light acidic touch coming through. Acidic and spiced flavoured finish.

Bottle sampled at SF International Beer Fest. Dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma of chocolate and roast. Very tasty with chocolate standing out along with coffee and roasted malt with mild hops. Body medium, would like it a little fuller.

Not as chocolaty as I would have like. Dont get me wrong you can taste it but I was looking for a Willy Wonka Masterpiece.

Rich dark brown color, with bittersweet choc on the nose. Somewhat disappointing on the palate not as full bodied as I had expected. Decent choc flavors.
