pours a think black with a large lasting creamy light brown head. Aroma is dutched cocoa with roasted coffee. Sweet chocolate as promised giving way to coffee and back to the rich chocolare linger. Drinkable, do not note the alcohol. One dimensional, but really nice for an occasional treat.

Pours jet black with a small light brown head. Aroma of chocolate and coffee. Mouth feel is very thin for a stout, which is my biggest disappointment with this beer. Roasted malty-ness up front with chocolate and coffee along of a hint of bitter hops at the tale end. Pretty decent beer for the price, however, there are much, much better beers out there for the style.

Whiffs of chocolate. Poured a midnight brown with a redish tint to it. Tasted like chocolate and roasted malts. A bit thin for my liking, but over all very drinkable for a high abv beer.

22 oz bottle. Chocolate and roast aroma. Clear very dark mahogany brown with fluffy tan head. Nice coffee and chocolate roastyness. Full creamy body and mouthfeel. Finish is medium with enough bitterness to balance. Well executed beer! Delicious.

Pours opaque black with a fleeting tan head. Chocolate, coffee and alcohol come to the nose from this lightly sweet chocolaty brew. Little bitterness. Tasty!

22 oz bottle courtesy of Acknud. Pours a dark black/brown color with a 1/2" tan head. Aroma is chocolate as you might expect as well as malts. Nice velvety smooth palate with a substantial presence. Flavor was chocolate and roasted malt. Maybe some coffee notes. Very enjoyable.

Bomber from Liquor Max. Pours a very dark black with minor ruby glints. The head is tan, multifinger and creamy. The aroma is just chocolate. Body is no more than medium, and the carbonation is creamy. Flavor is sweet, chocolate with hints of treacle and coffee. A bit of oaky astringency comes out towards the finish. Heat is detectable, perhaps too much so. Still, it’s a good tasting drink.
