Jul 9, 2005 Opaque and dark brown with ruby accents. Wonderful creamy, dark tan head. Nice bitter chocolate and espresso-laden aroma. I love what these malts are indicating. Medium-to-full bodied. Freshly roasted French coffee mixed with a gourmet hot chocolate mix. Not aggressive, but smooth and sound in style.

Jun 27, 2005 Brewpub sampler. Black body, lasting tan head. Big fatty malt in this guy! Most Excellent sweet chocolate malt with a good rich mouthfeel. Rosaty malt aroma, pretty weak though. A great beer for malt-heads.

Jun 19, 2005 Had on tap at the brewpub in downtown Green Bay, WI - very appropriately named - you can see a drawbridge from the brewry. Dark black pour, thick creamy mocha colored head with excellent lacing. Tad too much lacticity, but does not ruin it. Good creaminness and minty notes setle in well with the bittersweet chocolate. Creamy mouthfeel. Probably th ebest of my sample at Titletown.

Dec 11, 2003 I understand this is to be dropped as one of the standard tap items. Near black with a light cocoa colored head. Light roasted malt with overtones of dark choclate and mild coffee in the aroma. Light smooth feel. Mocha flavors abound. Light herbal hops and dark malt finish.

Aug 6, 2002 Aroma rather slight, some chocolate evident. Nice creamy lasting head. Fairly sweet, very smooth, some coffee/chocolate overtones but not terribly distinctive. Some red wine notes as well. OK.

Mar 5, 2002 Smooth and creamy chocolate/coffee-style stout. Had at the brewpub, on tap. A nice restaurant, by the way, that began its architectural life as a railroad station. Worth checking out the next time you’re in Green Bay. Go Packers!
