I tend to favor local beers whenever I get the chance; TC definitely qualifies as a local brewery for me. Of the three I sampled (Amber, Doppelbock, and Pilsner) at dinner, the Doppel (excuse me, DOPPLE)bock was my favorite. It served as a stand-alone dessert after a great meal, but would pair nicely with good chocolate and ice cream, for certain. It would also be a winner with anything blackened (catfish, even). Not too sweet, not too bitter, a good balance. Definite coffee notes abouind. A nice, oily finish stands out in my memory.

Apr 11, 2009 Bottle pours deep mahogany color, nearly opaque. Aroma of sweet malt, chocolate, roasted malt, sweet coffee. Flavor is huge roasted and chocolate malt with a rich, creamy mouthfeel. Very robust flavor with a long, coffee, nut and roasty finish. Fits the profile of "liquid bread" very nicely.

May 19, 2009 12oz bottle, from Charleston Beer Exchange. Pours deep brown with a bit of a reddish hue, capped with a big tan head. Cocoa is the dominant aroma, along with caramel and nut, with a bit of vanilla. Chocolate is the initial flavor to hit the palate, and is nicely complimented by molasses, pine, plum and brown sugar. Finishes a bit sweet, with a hint of smoke. Very enjoyable beer, especially for the $1.54 price tag.

Mar 24, 2009 Pours a rusty red brown color. Aroma is caramelly, slightly buttery, toasty, and nuts. Tastes of caramel, toast, chocolate, and sweet toasted nuts. Slick medium bodied mouthfeel, slightly sticky. Pretty nice I thought.

Feb 22, 2009 Had on tap at Stogies and Stouts. Maybe I was off, but I loved this beer. It was my favorite of the evening, actually. Flavor was rich, roasted nuts, carmalized sugar, and some milk chocolate. Easily drinkable. I loved it!
