(bottle) Pours black with a small dark tan head. Aroma is very sweet with some brown sugar and vanilla, no roasted malt. This beer tastes like someone took Coke and infused it with some roasted malt, because the taste is almost exactly like coke initially then a slight roasted finish comes in to remind me I’m drinking a stout. Pretty thin body, not that good

This is one of the first craft beers I ever had, so please excuse my emotional bias. Do you like mocha lattes? This is the beer for you. In summation: coffee, chocolate, scalded milk. Pretty much exactly what comes to mind when I think about what a sweet stout should taste like.

12oz. Bottle: Sweet aroma. Smells of chocolate, malts, roasting, and cream. Poured black in color with a large, dense, dark-brown head that shrank but lasted throughout. Opaque. Flavor is medium sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of milk chocolate, Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup, malts, roasting, espresso, and mocha. Medium body. Smooth texture. Soft carbonation. Chocolate and roasting in the finish.

caramel, coffee, chocolate, tan foam, dark chocolate color, medium sweetness, lightly bitter, medium body, soft carbonation, creamy, Nice pour, head quickly disappears. Excellent aroma, combined with good aftertaste increases value of beer. Generally a good beer with nice bitter sweet mocha flavor.

Like an alcoholic Mocha. It’s smooth, chocolaty, bitter like a good stout should be. Illegal to sell in Alabama, but completely worth that trip to Columbus.

Drank it out of the bottle. Very sweet and mellow with notes of chocolate and coffee. Pleasant, smooth finish with a sweet aftertaste. My favorite stout by far.

looks like liquid chocolate, smells like a sweet and more powerful guiness... extremely prickly hoppish but really sweet feeling
