Jul 3, 2009 Thanks for sharing, bro!
Pours a dark brown to black color with a thin to medium off-white head which leaves almost no lacing. Aroma is milk chocolate, vanilla, and coffee. Taste has a decent amount of vanilla, like the Creme Brulee, but not too overpowering. There is also a good coffee and milk chocolate taste in there, with a hint of rum raisin. Outstanding.

Jul 2, 2009 22 ounce bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA. Pours pitch black. Medium head with fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is very nice... a congruence of all things chocolate and delectable with just a hint of coffee thrown in. Taste is dark chocolate with roasted malts and a bitter espresso finish and faint vanilla notes.. Full bodied. Damn good beer,

Jul 2, 2009 Part of a So. Tier sampling party. My sense was that Choklat was a bit better, but I very much enjoyed this as well. The mouthfeel and viscosity was superior to Chocklat, but my sense was that while coffee and chocolate do work well together, they work less well in beer, where the flavors become entangled and detract rather than benefit.

Jul 2, 2009 (22oz bottle) Pours a deep mahogany body with a small beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, and vanilla. Flavor of chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, vanilla, and caramel with a silky smooth dessert-like finish. Another excellent stout from Southern Tier!

Jul 1, 2009 A combination of Java (which I thought was OK but nothing spectacular) and Choklat (which I love), here goes. Smells like Choklat - sweet sticky and syrupy with notes of chocolate and molasses. Perfect pour - black color with no highlights and a big beige head. Tastes a lot like Choklat with a few coffee notes, plus hops for balance. For 11% ABV, I’m surprised by how thin the mouth feel is on this beer. Awesome dessert beer though.

Jul 1, 2009 Updated: Oct 18, 2009On tap at RnH (Midtown, NYC): Tastes like a chocolate creamsicle. Sinful but utterly perfect. A chocolate/java lover’s dream! This taste is on a monumentous force of it’s own. It stands out big time. #041 on 01072009, DG.
