Oct 18, 2008 Pours from the bottle very dark with very little head that doesn’t stick around long and leaves little lacing as it goes down. There is a slight ruby color to the darkness, but I may be just seeing things.
Smells of chocolate, coffees, malts and all balanced very nicely.
The chocolate and coffee/mocha flavors are the first things to hit just like the smell. They stay all of the way through but are joined by malts later which is nice.
A bit of sweetness as things warm up and it feels nice in the mouth overall.
Tastes exactly as it should and what it says on the bottle. I wouldn’t be able to drink alot of this in one sitting but I would actually recommend it to others as a good example of this style.
