Feb 21, 2007 On tap. On Nitro. Poured a dark black color with an averaged sized light tan head. Aromas of chocolate and roast. Tastes of bitter chocolate and roast. Both the aromas and tastes were on the weaker side. This wasn’t bad, but I would like to have seen a stronger chocolate presence. Lacing left on the glass.

Mar 18, 2009 Aroma is lightly cocoaish. Light Belgian spiciness with a kiss of clove. Slightly phenolic but the chocolate does come through pretty nicely. Soft full palate. Lightly chewy with a lingering sweetness. There is a kiss of licorice flavour as well on the finish. Pretty decent.

Feb 22, 2007 Draft at Capone’s. I loved the look of this one, with a deep black color topped by a gorgeous, 2-finger, creamy tan head, and tons of lace. The aroma was roasty malt, some chocolate. The flavor was on the dry side, with roasty malt, some dark chocolate notes, and slight coffee hints. Very creamy.

Feb 21, 2007 On nitro at a Capone’s tasting. Pours a deep black with some amber and a large creamy tan head that left lacing. Aroma of milk chocolate, roasted malts and some caramel. Flavor of some chococlate and roasted malts. I think the nitro killed the aroma and flavor on this one though.

Mar 23, 2009 Tap at the brewpub. Some big coffee/roast and smelly bathroom aroma, some chocolate. Bubblegum and chocolately flavor, milk, sweetish with mild grain character. Nice body, low carbonation. As with a lot of beers from these guys, the beer is pretty decent but some off flavors really put a damper in the experience.

Mar 6, 2007 Nitro at Capone’s. Translucent, dark ruby body with a big, creamy tan head. Interesting aromas of chocolate, roast, and dark rum. Flavor has qualities of chocolate extract and substantial lactose sweetness. Ultimately, this seems too sweet and artificial by comparison with other chocolate stouts.
