Pours dark mahogany with abrown frothy head. Aroma of caramel and tart raspberries, with a dusting of cocoa. Sweet cocoa and caramel is followed by tart raspberries in the flavor. Dark, bitter chocalate and coffee in the finish. Medium mouthfeel with moderate carbonation.

May 7, 2008 3 yrs old. Bottle from whole foods market on Peterson. Dark brown with smal tan head. Aroma is big raspberries with very sweet roasted and chocolate like cocoa. Flavor is much the same. Body is medium to thin with little carbonation. This might be good as a chocolate bar, but too sweet for a beer. No aged notes coming out either.
