Pours dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma is strong chocolate, with a little hint of coffee. Taste is liquid chocolate, very similar to a tootsie roll or cupcake. Super sweet beer, but oh so good!

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Dec 27, 2009 Pours Black thin head. Aroma is very roasty with strong notes of chocolate. The flavour is also very strong with noites of chocolate and a strong flavour of roasted malt.Kind of bitter and dry. All in all not great. Pretty unispired for a Rogue product. aaronh2012 (20), Maryland, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 26, 2009 Smells very strongly of chocolate malts and roasted barley. I’ve been experimenting with beer temperature and I think I had this one a little too warm. The flavors were a little overpowering and a tad bitter. It mellowed slightly when I chilled it but I think that some age would do wonders for this beer. I may have to pick one up and leave it in the basement till next Christmas.
