| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 2, 2009 excellent beer. Aroma is awesome as well as the appearance. Chocolate dances everywhere, start to finish. This brew was a really nice surprise. It reminds me alot of Young’s Double Chocolate Stout, except it doesn’t really have that thick creaminess to it. It mouthfeel is a little light. Makes for a great after dinner/dessert beer. tennessejed420 (100), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 30, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Great looking pitch black pour with creamy bubbly light brown head. Pure aroma of rich chocolate malt, silky milky. Taste the same. Not to thick. This exceeded my expectations from harpoon. Delicious. tgncc (845), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 28, 2009 The aroma is like beer with Bosco, very chocolatey, like a bitter chocolate. The flavor follows very closely. The appearance is dark brown/ruby color, partly transparent to light. The finish is sweet and bitter chocolate, light hop burn. Medium mouthfeel, a little thin for the style. Nicely crafted overall. SuIIy (1486), Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours a black color with a small foamy off white head. Nose is dry roasted dark chocolate malt. Palate is full and fizzy with a dry finish. Flavor is chocolate and dry roasted malt. Leaves a fizzy film on the tongue. Nephilium (558), Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 24, 2009 Nice creamy chocolate aroma, some good roasty notes detectable. Pours an opaque brown, with just a thin layer of light tan head. Taste of milk chocolate, with a bit of sweetness noticeable. A bit thin in the mouthfeel, but overall a very drinkable stout.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 23, 2009 Black pour with little to no head to speak of. Light roast and some milk chocolate notes as well. Flavor is bolder than the aroma. Solid tones of chocolate and roast and ends with bitter chocolate. Mouthfeel is medium, a little thin but not as bad as I was expecting. Really all in all a drinkable, relatively tastey stout. I hope harpoon continues in this good direction. dogfish120love (282), west hartford, Connecticut, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 22, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a brownish cream colored head. Aroma is predominantly chocolate and coffee. The flavor has a hint of chocolate pudding and a large dose of chocolate and cofee. RickTStiles (54), New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 22, 2009 Pours black with a small tan head. No lacing but the head stuck around for a little bit. Aroma is bitter chocolate and malt. Somewhat weak nose with a chocolate body and a bitter malty finish. Not bad overall but I probably wont stock up.
