Can. Dark brown, almost black, oily pour with a thin light tan head. Aroma of chocolate and sugar. Taste is dominated by sweet chocolate, slight hints of vanilla with a really sweet finish. Good and widely available.

500 ml bottle. Finland. Pitch black colour with dark tan colour medium head. Aroma is mainly dark and even milk chocolate but also some roasted malts and hints of coffee. Flavour is much more coffee and cocoa with some chocolate. Mouthfeel is surprisingly thin. There is probably more than 10 years when I first tasted this brew and back then it was just delicious. Well, it’s still pretty good.

This beer is actually dessert like. Most chocolatey beer I’ve ever had. Very smooth, creamy texture, but not so much that it has the characteristics of a milk stout. Definitely get the bottle, not the cans, it’s a huge upgrade. If there’s a downside, it’s that it’s the flavor is more one-note than other beers of this caliber.

Too-thin but chocolate laced porter. One of the first porters I drank getting into beer. Loved it then, but have had so much better since.

Bottle; subtle chocolate aroma; nice balance of chocolate hints that flows over the palate without overpowering; felt at times I would taste tiny pockets of cocoa powder which kept me intrigued with it. (#19)

Acheté à la LCBO et dégusté avec Glandine en bouteille de 500ml dans un verre de guinness. Apparence d’un noir intense avec un reflet brun caramel et une bonne mousse collante. Arômes de chocolat noir, de vanille et de malt multiples. Une arôme envoutante et plaisante. Goût de chocolat au lait, de caramel et de vanille. Une bière jouissive!
