Commercial Description:
Gourmet chocolate raspberry coffee is used in the brewing process to achieve this unique flavor and aroma. With a rich dark color this medium bodied stout finishes fairly dry with subtle hints of chocolate, coffee and raspberry flavors.

2/26/08 notes: from Growler. Aroma is of strong milk chocolate, cherry liquor, and raspberries. Pours a dark brown, settles a brown-black with two fingers of head. Palate is a little thin, and features toasty notes of cherry/raspberry syrup, chocolate, and cream. Flavor is fairly “shallow”, in the sense that it doesn’t linger; as this beer sits, it develops a slightly smoky flavor that is adds complexity. Overall, I found this an interesting beer. Also, rather ambiguous style: not thick, roasty or alcohol, and no real trace of malts or hops in flavor. I can see why ratebeer calls this a spice beer.

Black body, foamy beige head, no lacing. Aroma of raspberry syrup, roasted malt, baker’s chocolate in the background. Flavors of raspberry truffles, bittersweet chocolate and some smoke in the finish. Thin bodied. The raspberry appears almost artificial.

Only had a small sample of this from a growler but it seemed a little thin bodied for the style.

On tap at the Bel Air brewery, dark color. Small white head. Not much to smell. At first the taste was a typical stout of coffee and malt, but the after taste was a burst of rasberry that was just the right amount. Nice hint of chocolate at the end as well. Smooth. I really liked this beer. Over a great stout!

Duclaw’s Naked Fish is really good. Aroma and appearance are good, and the flavor and overall qualities are unique and interesting.
