Commercial Description:
The Terrapin ""Dos Cocoas"" gets its name from the deep history of chocolate and the two forms of Ecuadorian cocoa we use in this exceptional beer. Brewed with 100% cocoa powder, and aged on a bed of pure cocoa nibs, the chocolate flavor in this beer is so mouth watering it will even make Wonka jealous.

Bottled. A pitch black beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and some vanilla. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt and chocolate as well as some notes of sweet malt and wood, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Dull looking dark brown with no head. Lots of cocoa in the nose, little else. Despite hints of syrupiness on the nose, it’s lighter on the palate. Dos Cocoas finishes just a touch syrupy with some cocoa notes.
