May 23, 2006 Bottle. Clear deep ruby color with bubbly tan head. Complex aroma; molasses, toast, and of course, chocolate. Carbonation is on the low end. Sweet and chocolatey throughout with a lingering sweetness and milk chocolate aftertaste. Pretty good stuff.

May 22, 2006 Bottle number 30951504. From my notes, April ’06. Aroma of fruity chocolate. Dark brown color, almost black. Almost nonexistent head quickly disappeared. Medium mouthfeel, a bit thick. Taste of chocolate, only a small hint of caramel. Finish of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Excellent, but not worth the $14.

Apr 28, 2006 The aroma is chocolate, nuts and hops. The head is thick and creamy light brown in color and mostly diminishing. The lacing is very good. The flavor is a little bitter hitting the back of the tongue and very chocolate, then hoppy and then leaving a nice taste in the mouth. The body is light and the finish is medium to long but more hoppy than chocolate.

Apr 23, 2006 750 ml bottle. Pours to a beautiful, deep brown color, with a thick, creamy, tan head, and a moderate to soft carbonation. The nose on this beer is inviting, with aromas of sweet malt, and cocoa powder. The palate is firm, with good flavors of sweet and nutty malt, paired with a back drop of bitter sweet chocolate flavor. Chocolate bock finishes with more sweet and nutty malt and chocolate flavors up front, then ends with some flavors of chocolate that linger. You really can taste the chocolate in this beer, and this one makes for an enjoyable desert or after dinner beer. I found this beer to be a little over priced. It retails from $14-$17 is some markets, and for that price, I could by 3 or 4 bottles of Rogue Chocolate Stout, which I find to be as good, if not better than this beer. Worth a try, but not a beer I would buy too often.

Apr 21, 2006 Updated: Apr 24, 2006Pours dark black with a thick tan head. Aroma is coccoa with a hint of floral hops. Body is too thin, flavor is lots of coccoa with just a hint of hops on the finish. Very one dimensional, but the chocolate is tasty. Was a nice treat as a dessert after barbequeing, but I wouldn’t bother spending another $15 on this.

Dark brown colour, poor head. Loads of milky chocolate in aroma, not much else was sensed. Sweet malty, light caramelly flavour with loads of pure milk chocolate. No depth here, just choco. What’s this with innovation? Adding chocolate to a porter? Come back when raspberry is added. That is what I call innovative.
