A unique Highland creation, this robust beer is black in color, very malty with hints of chocolate-roasted flavor and a well balanced hop character.

Outstanding. Really great mocha, roast malt and coffee flavor. A great brewery. Can’t wait to see what comes from them in the future.

Bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma is sweet with chocolate and malt. Flavor is roasty with a bitter chocolate finish. Could stand to be a little more full-bodied. Great beer nonetheless.

Pours to a dark, amber color with a tan head. Aroma is filled with sweetness and hints of chocolate with a moderate body, very smooth, malty beer that is roasted with chocolate malts in it. Goes down easy, another great beer from the boys at Highland

Ok, this beer is overly sweet, very thin with little balance. It is like a decent homebrew extract beer. Overall, It just misses on most areas. Thin mouth feel, sweetness, little body, it is like a extract beer with extra caramel malt added. Seriously, not very good.

Courtesy of Sammy. It’s a dark brow with a red hue and a dense, creamy head. The aroma has ntoes of roasted malt, hops and light coffee and chocolate. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of roasted malt, slightly bitter coffee, light chocolate and a roasted bitterness in the finish. It’s not very full-bodied, but it’s smooth, nice and quite charming.
