Commercial Description:
Black ale with aromas and flavours of vanilla, dark chocolate, bourbon and roasted malt. The vanilla and cocoa marry nicely, without out-competing each other, to produce a surprisingly well balanced beer. This beer is mildly hoppy, but the cocoa introduces a touch of bitterness. Its colour may be intimidating, but it is a very smooth beer within reach of most beer drinkers. This highly appreciated dessert beer is brewed with organic fair-trade cocoa and first rate vanilla beans.

Black colored with little beige head. Vanilla hits up strongly with nice cocoa, rich coffee-roastiness also comes up nicely here. Very interesting mix of vanilla and cocoa with roastiness. Medium bodied, very smooth palated. Flavor is similar with vanilla and cocoa in start, some fruits come up too. Aftertaste lasts with roastiness, convenient bitterness, thin vanilla also here. Well, excellent balance with nice features.

Bottle sample at a tasting. Brought by me from Cracked Kettle in Amsterdam. Black-colored with a nice brown head. Aroma of lovely rich chocolate, cocoa powder and some dark fruits pralines. Sweet flavor with some strange herbal bitterness, vanilla, coffee and some chocolate. Full-bodied. Good stuff.

Bottle. Poured dark as night with no head. Nose is coffee chocolate and vanilla. Possibly more vanillla than he others. Front is all vanilla. It is sweet with some bitterness. But this is a dessert beer if I’ve ever had one with sweetness being a bit cloying.

Bottle. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, bitter chocolate, Tootsie roll, lactose, vanilla. Flavor is super chocolatey--chocolate milkshake, chocolate- covered pretzels, WOW. Lots of lactose too and even some peanut butter makes its presence. Another great beer from Dieu du Ciel, just awesome! I just love the chocolatey presence. 8/4/9/5/18 [4.4/5]
