Commercial Description:
Made in the style of a Robust Porter, our Chocolate is higher in alcohol than a ‘normal’ porter. Its very malty profile is due to an abundance of crystallized malts. It’s chocolaty and nutty undertones (overtones?) result from these Barley malts, Oat malt and a healthy dose of a very dark, roasted malt known as Chocolate. The overall effect of these ingredients gives a full and malty flavored drink with roasty and chocolate notes that are not due to any addition of actual chocolate or cocoa. Drink this alone to feed yourself or with a meal to celebrate yourself!

Poured from the tap into a tasting glass. The color is a dark black with a light brown head with some nice lacing. The smell is of roasted malt, some nice chocolate flavor with a touch of hops. The taste is dark chocolate with a roasted malt flavor. A roasted almond feel with some slight bitterness. The feel of this beer is not as heavy as expected. Feels a bit warm but not too acidy. A nice drinkable beer.

Pure cocoa powder aroma. Lightly sweet chocolate flavor. Reminds me of a lighter, less chocolaty Young’s double chocolate stout.
