KariCupcake (214), Lenox, Massachusetts, USA Nov 13, 2006 Shared a sampler that had this in it. The appearance was black topped with a big nose of chocolate. Nice chocolate taste and velvety on the tongue. Volgon (2487), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Sep 24, 2006 On tap at Millys: Brown ruby with no head, rich fudge and chocolate in the aroma, syrupy thick body, starts and ends sweet, a bit too rich for me, but a nice beer for someone who really likes chocolate. It would taste good on ice cream. DarkMagus (433), San Jose, California, USA Jul 25, 2006 On tap at Milly’s. Minimal, short-lived head...disappeared and left nothing behind. Sugary, very intense cocoa aroma. Sweet cocoa flavors with malt and roasted grains. Pretty good (what I’d consider) "novelty" brew... good to have one of these now and again to spice things up. LyndaNova (492), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Jul 13, 2006 Served on tap at Milly’s Tavern in Manchester, NH. I enjoyed this chocolate ale that Mike made. Caramel colored head and very dark brown ale. The aroma is of chocolate and is more sweet than the taste, which has a nice balance of bitter and sweet. BitchesBrew (710), Berkeley, California, USA Jun 2, 2006 [tap] Seriously HUGE, sweet chocolate aroma. Appears nearly black, with a tan/coffee colored head. Taste is malty, with finishing aftertaste of dark, slightly bitter chocolate. A wonderful example of chocolate used in beer. jcwattsrugger (5223), Florida and, New Jersey, USA May 29, 2006 on tap-pours a rocky tan head with cloudy brown color. Aroma is chocolate, malt. Taste is chocolate, dark malt, hint of lime. Interesting, well done. Occasional. OK carbonation. hophead75 (1945), Boonton, New Jersey, USA May 22, 2006 sampled at the brewpub with dirtymike. Dark brown with a small off white head. Aroma: Big fresh chocolate, some sweet malt. Taste: Chocolate, caramel malt, light bodied, medium carbonation, with a slight bitter aftertaste of roast and hops. ericnixon (719), Northampton, Massachusetts, USA May 21, 2006 On tap at Milly’s Tavern. It’s made with Van Otis chocolate. Black color with a big chocolate aroma. Smooth mouthfeel with a mild fizziness. Lightly bitter aftertaste.
