| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | 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. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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. Skyview (4067), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 23, 2007 On nitro charge at the brewpub/restaurant in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a creamy light tan head that has excellent retention and lacing. The nitro charge does nice to this beverage. Aroma of dark toasted black malt, some molasses, milk chocolate and a touch of mocha. Taste is medium to full bodied, smooth, creamy with a distinct milk chocolate flavor with toasted oatmeal malt. Finish is semi-sweet with a very mild bitterness that disappears quickly. Ughsmash (4061), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 28, 2009 On tap at Titletown. Poured deep brown with a creamy, thick cap of beige head. The aroma was on the sweet and lightly-toasted side with chocolate and coffee notes leading.. soft and well-balanced. The flavor found smooth chocolate, coffee, and toasted black malts at the core with some lactic sourness and more coffee around.. finished sweet with more of the same. Medium-bodied and a tad slick on the palate.. solid lingering bitterness on the finish.. OK flow. Tasty. PorterPounder (3147), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | May 18, 2008 One of the first beers I tried at Titletown, it pours a dark black colour with a large tan head. Body is thick, creamy, not a whole lot of carbonation but a nice touch of roasted malts and extra toffee flavors. Finishes light and very smooth.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | 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. DavidP (1743), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | 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.
