Nov 22, 2009 Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a large dirty brown foamy head with good retention and some great lacing. Aroma of nice black chocolate malt with nice creamy espresso notes. Taste is a nice mix between some very well balanced black chocolate and some creamy espresso with a nice dose of lactic sugar. Body is full with nice carbonation and a great creamy texture. Very well done with all the ingredient well balanced out and doesn’t taste too artificial.

Nov 22, 2009 Very dark with a tan head. Sweet chocolate aroma with malts and molasses. Flavor was over the top sweet chocolate. Too much for me- way too much. Some molasses and light roasted notes, but the sugary, chocolate sweetness kills it. I found it hard to drink this sticky, syrupy brew. I wouldn’t say it’s a bad beer, it’s just not something I enjoy.

Nov 16, 2009 Pours dark brown with a decent foamy tan head and a fragrant chocolate aroma. Yes, it tastes like a liquid chocolate bar with heavy carbonation and a lot of alcohol. It’s seriously delicious, but if you’re not a chocolate lover, you will probably not like this one very much. I like it.

Nov 12, 2009 Bomber. Pours headless, laceless opaque black. Full sweet body and mild carbonation. Sweet chocolate aroma. Sweet, and I do mean sweet taste of chocolate with with a dash of coffee. Basically a liquid chocolate bar. Interesting but unbalanced. Anyone who says this beer is ’almost’ cloying is being charitable.

Nov 10, 2009 Big thick black pour with a thin tan head. Sweet dark chocolate bar aroma. Dark chocolate malt, coffee taste. Finishes a little sweet. Fabulous.

Nov 6, 2009 Black with a brown head. Aroma is utterly sweet chemical chocolate. Flavour is similar but even sweeter with light chocolate flavours, taste like a milky chemical chocolate bar from a really crappy company. Imperial beer for under-aged kids with f**** up taste buds.

Nov 4, 2009 This is a dessert beer if ever I tasted one...would go well with cappuccino or chocolate ice cream. Dark mahogany pour that is translucent around the edges. Produces a 1/2 inch creamy latte head but nothing really stuck to the glass. Aroma is decadent: Godiva, Starbucks, vanilla, molasses, and brown sugar. Flavor doesn’t show the 11% at all. Instead, it’s sticky sweet with loads of caramel, cocoa, and vanilla bean. Not viscous and a little syrupy. Solid.
