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.

A nose of tobacco, roasted malts, chocolate and vanilla. Taste is mellow but enjoyable. The chocolate beans and the vanilla gives it a certain flavour... Vanilla, tobacco and olives. A little sweetness and a bit dusty. Finish is roasted, with a tad of sourness, then quite dry. This is not outstanding, but it’s very drinkable. Similar to both Smörpundet and Mikkeller BG Breakfast.

Pours pitch black with a thin mocha ring which fades quickly and completely. Aroma is vanilla beans, dark chocolate, hints of bourbon. Taste is much the same but very smooth and drinkable, and not as heavy as other Stouts. I still preer Moh-ka, though!

Labeled Aphrodite. Nice oily deep blackness pour. Total ice cream french vanilla and chocolate chip aromas. Earthy coffee vibes too. Long range of aromas. Body is bold yet still gentle in texture and nuanced tastes. Deep boasty chocolate flavors are mingling with sweet delicate vanilla bean and caramel touches. A very fine beer

Aroma is HUGELY chocolate with a big cocoa aroma that is heavenly. The more you breathe in the aroma the richer the chocolate gets. The flavor does not dissapoint, but instead follows with much more than you could ever expect. Pure rich chocolate goodness. Not candylike, not overly sweet, but instead a chocolate designed only to be quaffed in beer. The vanilla flavor comes through in the end, and the mouthfeel is so silky smooth. A purely wonderful experience that should be enjoyed by all.

Pours black with a thin tan head. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla. This beer was a lot less sweet than I thought it would be, but it was really well done. The cocoa leaves a bitter taste, but the vanilla balances it out. Good beer, will give it another try for sure.

One big ass thanks to MrBunn!!! Man what a great beer. Aroma of milk chocolate and the smells of heaven. The taste is like a rainbow in liquid form. Chocolate, vanilla and pure unadulterated goodness is what comes from this bottle.

This beer pours an angry dark and has a smallish medium tan head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, dark fruit, vanilla, dark fruit and a bit of smoke. It is a very pleasant aroma and I wish it was a bit more pronounced. Flavor is also chocolate and coffee dominated with vanilla. Some hops. Feel is powdery but smooth and this is a dry beer. Aftertaste is mildly bitter with cappuccino. Very nice!

One of my best beers ever. Perfect when sitting by the fire on a cold winter day. Very delicate yet powerfull at the same time. For the rest, the label says it all.

Thanks Tampa Crew for sharing. Pours dark brown/ black with a tan head. Nose is roast, malt, chocolate, vanilla, dark fruit, cherry, and depth. Flavor is the same sweeping through with Barry White’s smoothness and an awesome palate finishing with vanilla, chocolate, and fruit. Medium to full bodied and pretty darned good.
