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.

finally, after a long anticipated wait...here it sits before me. bottled as "aphrodite" it already looks awesome with this hotty on the bottle. it pours a pitch black under a medium sized brown head. the aroma is of perfectly melded milk chocolate and roasted barley with some cream. oh yes! the flavor is melted milk chocolate with the richness of a real candy bar, a pinch of salt and faint hints of vanilla. the palate is creamy and med-full but refreshing too. if i had a million dollars i would fill a pool with this beer. pure goodness. i cannot find a single flaw. i’m not worthy! my first perfect 5.

Excellente! Un goût riche et velouté de café. Aucune amertume ou si peut. Une bonne mousse. Se bois très bien, une vraie dégustation.

Rebu sur place en fut (20 oz). Brune noircie, bon collet beige avec une grosse dentelle. Arome de malte très chocolaté, juste assé sucré et très doux et cochon. Goût de malte rôti et très chocolaté, avec une petite douceur de vanille. Divine!

Tap. Moan and Dove Peche Mortel unveiling. To be quite honest, this beer stole the show. This beer showed up the Peche Mortel, which is not an easy feat. Gorgeous sweet sugary vanilla aroma with hints of chocolate. This thing smells amazing. Yummy. Pitch black with a long-standing light tan head. The head is much more durable than the Peche Mortel. Sweet, chocolatey, vanilla notes. Roasts are present as well. Flavor of a roasted chocolate milk with a twist of vanilla. No alcohol detected. This is extremely satisfying and perhaps the best beer I have ever experienced. Great mouthfeel, silky, and amazingly drinkable. I have trouble finding fault with this beer.

(Draught) Creamy brown head and opaque body. Chocolate, vanilla and marshmallow aroma. A chocolate milkshake with expensive vanilla ice cream and thick 35% MF whipping cream. Finishes with a vanilla flavour so smooth that you slide right out of your clothes onto the naked marble floor. My ’Best of Show’ for Le 10e Mondial de la Biere in Montreal. Absolutely to die for...

Many thanks to my buddy Claude Turcotte for bringing this one back from his mother land....and I only had to hint one time. Pours a very deep dark opaque black with a creamy brown head. Aroma is big chocolate, vanilla and marshmellow sweet...wow. I figured I’d like it, but wow. The taste is delicious vanilla, cocoa, and a restrained bitterness. Finishes with a vanilla flavour so smooth and bittersweet that I was sad to reach the end. Surprisingly awesome. I’ve got to maintain my Canadian connection!
