Pours a shimmering blackish brown with a tan head that settles. not much in the way of lacing. Nose is caramel malt and some hint of coffee. Body is medium with slick chocolate tone. Overall feel is quick. Sweet body flows nicely till coffee bitterness apears and leads to the slightly lingering aftertaste. Finally, another brew that doesn’t overdo it with the coffee. I was hoping for a more abundant nose.

Nice black pour with a pretty light head. Smell the chocolate, like a Mocha Starbucks drink. Very heavy and varying tones of chocolate, has a nice bite, covers the ABV well. Like a chocolate RIS, which is what I think they were going for.

Pours a dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma is light of chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, caramel malts, and molasses. Flavor is sweet with chocolate and molasses at first. Light undertones of coffee and roasted malts. Finishes slightly bitter.

Draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Opaque black, no head. Rich milk chocolate aroma. Sweet and full bodied with clean rounded mouthfeel. Caramelly malt with notes of bees wax, tar and milk chocolate. Warming potent finish with low bitterness. Makes me think of Bailey’s...

big Mexican spiced chocolate dominates the beer. not bad n the palate as a result of perhaps adjuncts and oat. well roasted and balanced. not to pleasing on the tounge I liked it better when I was drunk.

Thanks to the bro for sharing this one. Pours black with a medium off-white head that quickly fades. Aroma is chocolate malts, light coffee, and cardboard. Taste is milk chocolate and slight dark roasts. Overall a fine stout that hides the alcohol well.

Pours a rich black color with medium off-white head that fades quickly. Aroma is intense chocolate malt, cocoa powder, and light roasted coffee. Taste is rich milk chocolate, light coffee, and light roasted malt. Alcohol is well hidden, and the palate is full bodied with a light astringency. Overall, a solid stout. Thanks Ross!
