Jul 7, 2009 On tap at the Ommegang brewery. Pours dark brown (not completely black), with nice tan head. Very heavy chocolate aroma, and tastes sweet and chocolatey with a hint of coffee. Medium bodied, a touch on the lighter side for the style. It was introduced to me as a porter when I had it, but its likeness to a stout is also very apparent as noted in the commercial description. This is a great unique beer thats definitely worth a try.

Jun 18, 2009 On tap at Aroma Thyme. Very similar to the Chocolate. A faint fruit essence. Pretty good balanced flavor with coffee and chocolate and drinkable but not worth what they were charging. $7 for like 10oz. Crazy.

Apr 29, 2009 On draught at the Sugar Maple tavern in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a creamy beige head that quickly dissipates to a thin ring. Aroma of toasted dark malt, a hint of banana, cherries, dark chocolate, and a hint of coffee. Taste is full bodied, very complex with flavors of toasted dark malt, yeast, a hint of banana and some cherry. Finish is quite smooth and creamy with a semi-sweet chocolate and hint of cherry aftertaste.

Apr 27, 2009 Draft (The Bavarian Lodge-Lisle)-Pours a dark black with some ruby tints. Aroma of cherry, chocolate, and slight alcohol. Flavors of cherry, chocolate, roasted malt, and coffee. This full bodied stout was quite tasty and well balanced. Also appeared a little tangy.

Apr 23, 2009 I wanted to try this beer ever since I heard about it... but it just never happened. But I persevered, kept my eyes on the prize and exhausted all my available resources. I kept telling myself, Yes I Can.
On tap at Sunset, semi-transparent black body that brown at the edges. Very floral and bouquet like nose with a little dust in the background. Stout? This drinks more like a dubbel with strong yeast and banana notes, some peat and light fruit. Finishes almost sour with dry bready flavor.

Apr 17, 2009 [1965-20090124] Tap. A little smoky beef and mild roasted cola in the aroma. Hazy, dark dark brown black body with a long-lasting creamy tan head and thick lacing. Banana roasted malt flavour has a generic fruit background and mildly bitter butter. Medium-full body. Good.

Apr 1, 2009 Mini growler from Half-Time. Pours a dark chocolate brown with a large tanned brown head. Light roasted malt, bakers chocolate, and a little bit of hops on the nose. Chocolate, but not overpowering or super sweet. Hint of stone fruit, sweetness, and a little bit of alcohol. Finishes lightly with a little bit of bitterness and a touch more sweetness.
