medium body, average carbonation. Easier to drink in quantity than some. Flavors of raisin, licorice, chocolate, caramel; tastes "bright" rather than "dark", but with a good depth of flavor without being too intense.

12 0z bottle, ink black pour with misshapen dark khaki head, some coffee and roasted malt flavors but a little one dimensional

12oz bottle. Black with a tan head. Milk chocolate aroma. Sweet roasted malt and vanilla taste with almost no bitterness or hops. medium and softly carbonated body. Pleasing and easy to down, similar to chocolate milk, but thats about all I get out of it, no excitement.

The smell is a rich chocolate base and a strong/good coffee aromas. There is a dark black color which is not transparent or faded when tipping the glass (or dispersing the liquid) unlike some stouts. The dark brown head lasts and slightly laces to the glass, but does dissipates over time. The taste is a unique with strong chocolate and roasted malts that blend nicely and sweetness of toffee. Some DMS and a bit of diactyl as well. Some oily textures that is kind of a deterrent as well. The body is light overall but does leave some lactose sweetness in the finish.

Pours a nice opaque black with a tan head. The aroma is a sweet roastiness. The flavor is likewise sweet, but with a unique tartness. The shortcoming comes in the thinness of the body.

Pours basically black with a tan head. Taste is on the thinner side in my opinion, while its good its not exactly interesting or unique. Disappointed in the low alc number.
