Commercial Description:
This is the famous Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, our award-winning rendition of the Imperial Stout style once made exclusively for Catherine the Great. We use three mashes to brew each batch of this beer, achieving a luscious deep dark chocolate flavor through a blend of specialty roasted malts. We brew it every year for the winter season. It is delicious when newly bottled, but also ages beautifully for years.

Bottle. Pours black with a brown head. Roasted malt aroma with chocolate and a hint of alcohol. Medium full body. Flavor has chocolate and roasted malt notes, but also a very off putting alcoholic astringency. I love stouts but this one just doesn’t do it for me.

Tried thanks to Poperinge! What a beer, the inspiration for me to brew my own imperial stout....turned out well but not nearly as good as this! This is an awesome beer, massive chocolate and dark fruit goodness with a hint of smoke!

pours dark black with a thick brown head. aroma is full of chocolate and dark roasted malts, some coffee in the backgound. flavor is very rich and smooth, full chocolate, roastieness. incredibally drinkable, the only clue to its high alcohol content is the warmth going down your throat.

Bottle, 12 fl. oz. Pours a pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor follows the nose. The mouthfeel is bold and pleasant. A very good chocolatestout.
