Jan 27, 2008 Best of fest at 2008 Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting. This was definitely a hit with the ladies of our group. The aroma is for certain, little chocolate doughnuts. In fact the aroma wafts a decent ways from the glass. Almost like living within a block of a Krispy Kreme. The doughnut flavor does not come through as strongly as the aroma. You do get some flavors of vanilla and roasted malt. Slight hint of chocolate and some sweetness to finish you off.

Jun 16, 2009 On cask 1/26/08 at the Atlanta Cask Ale tasting: Barely transparent dark mahogany with a spotty-lacing light tan head. Aroma of rich creamy milk chocolate and some dark caramel complexity reminds me a lot of Youngs Double Chocolate Stout. Body starts creamy and lightly sweet with lots of milk chocolatey flavor and subtle bittering hop balance with a doughy semi-sweet finish. A very interesting and well made brew.

Feb 4, 2008 Cask @ Atl Cask Ale Tasting 2008. Very suprised by this beer as I haven’t had anything good from this brewery ever. Second favorite brew @ the festival. Nice chocolate, malt, and vanilla balance, with an edge towards the chocolate.

Feb 15, 2008 Pours an almost opaque black color with a very light brown head. Aroma is chocolate, dough, and vanilla. Flavor is roasty, dough, vanilla, chocolate, and a light bitter finish. This was an awesome beer.

Feb 9, 2008 Cask @ ATL Cask Ale Fest ’08. Tons of chocolate in the nose and on first sip. Reminds me of Rogue Chocolate Stout. Chocolate and vanilla dominant. It does taste like a chocolate doughnut. One of the better beers at the festival.

Jan 26, 2008 Definitely an unusual process. Very chocolatey, a bit of sugar. You can taste the doughnuts.
