Draft. Nice black body with thin head. Aroma is light chocolate, malty. Flavor is sweet chocolate and coffee with some malty tones. A little ahy.

Jul 1, 2008 Black body, a tall fluffy tan head. Aroma is apples, and a light touch of chocolate. Flavor is some chocolate, and cola. The chocolate layer is quite nice.

Jun 28, 2008 22oz bottle, courtesy of wickedpete. Thanks, Pete! Pours a dark cola color; huge, textured light tan head with good retention and foamy lacing. Lots of chocolate (milk, mostly), soft vanilla and cocoa in the aroma. Medium mouthfeel: lively carbonation, almost fizzy; lots of cocoa and nougat; chewy dark chocolate notes; reasonably toasty, chocolate-forward stuff, if a bit fizzy. Medium finish: cocoa, dark chocolate, and toasty malts; ends slightly dry, chalky.

Oct 29, 2007 Poured a shiny black-brown body symbolic of this beer’s namesake. Mild off-white-tan head. Dry-hopped and bitter. Slightly coffee and finished with astringencies. Decent beer English in nature from the land of New England.
