CanIHave4Beers (833), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Oct 23, 2009 This is a dear old favorite of mine, the notorious "chocolate pop" we used to try to get my younger brothers to try. The beer pours a black color with a big thick head and plenty of lace. The aroma is strong with mocha coffee and not much else. The flavor has a distinct chocolate milk thing going on with some woodiness, some mocha, but mostly just chocolate. It’s sweet, but it’s miles away from cloying. Still delicious after all these years. kdreaddy (1), Ontario, Canada does not count Oct 22, 2009 Not only is this beer smooth and rich, it has a mild chocolatety aroma. The beer smells sweet but does not taste sweet - it is just the essence of the chocolate that you taste and smell, it still has a fantastic stout flavour and a fantastic after-taste, not bitter at all, that hint of chocolate lingers. It is fantastic for drinking AND baking! bluebetty (90), Australia Oct 22, 2009 Bottle. near black with small tan head, Aromas of coffee liquor and choclate. Flavours are probably not as great as the aromas would have you beleive with some toffee, coffee and roasted notes. Body is a little thin fromred2green (140), , Ohio, USA Oct 21, 2009 Bottle. Pours near-black with a medium tan head. Some lace. Aroma is of a sweet, rich chocolate and very malty. Flavor is chocolate milk. Very delicious. dwaggs2 (531), Lee’s Summit, Missouri, USA Oct 15, 2009 Bottle. Poured a jet black with a creamy tan head. Aroma was roasted malts, chocolate, and coffee. Flavor was burnt coffee, malts, and chocolate. medium bodied. Very good beer. mcberko (123), British Columbia, Canada Oct 14, 2009 Pours jet black into a pint glass. Aroma is very dark chocolate. Flavour is disappointing though - metallic, weak chocolate, with a somewhat unpleasant aftertaste. A very overrated stout, but still drinkable. Pipper (225), Ohio, USA Oct 12, 2009 Um soooo good, no joke. On tap at the Beer Engine. The smell alone is ridiculous -- like super smooth sweet dark chocolate blended with sweetened condensed milk. The flavor is surprisingly much much lighter than the aroma would suggest. Smooth, delicious, happiness in a glass. BrewingFan (44), Texas, USA Oct 10, 2009 Black as night, bursting with chocolate everywhere. Not what I was expecting, it is like drinking a chocolate lava milk shake, only better, its a beer!
