Black body with a medium lightbrown creamy head. It looks beautiful. Aroma is chocolate, a bit coffee. Flavor is milch chocolate with a light bitter aftertaste. It is creamy in the mouth, the carbonation is a bit to flat for me.

Not as Chocoaltey as you would imagine, but good. It pours like you hoo and has a beautiful cascading nitrogen-infused head. It is really smooth, pretty much like a chocalty Guiness.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a muddy black with a small tan head, reverse bubbles and an aroma of chocolate, cream and buttercookies. The taste is pretty sweet for a stout, with a soft, creamy mouthfeel. Their are hints of dark chocolate, black coffee, caramel, brown sugar and sweet malts. The finish is nice bitter, I really like this.

I’ve had this on draft nitro keg man I love the reverse cascade bubbles in the glass. The only other beer ive seen do that was Guiness.BRILLIANT ..Tons of flavor and very smooth and creamy chocolate abound the palate. Im glad this is available at the local brew pub and I have made a session. I really like the malt base they used on this everything seems to blend for awesome balance. This is a great beer by all measures. But of coarse im a stout head! Cheers.

[Bottle] at a blind tasting. Pours a clearish brown with a tan head of fine bubbles. Aroma is very caramelly with some bakers chocolate. Flavor is more chocolaty. Very smooth and a bit dry.

50cl bottle from Mr. Dunderbaks (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark brown to black color with a massive two finger tan, creamy head that settles slowly and provides ample lacing on the glass. Aroma is roasted and malty with strong notes of chocolate, coffee, caramel and ripe dark fruits and hints of honey, spice, and toasted bread. Flavor is malty and sweet with strong chocolate, caramel, toffee and heavy cream notes with hints of coffee, toffee, and roasted flavors. Generally full body with a pleasing sweet and chocolate finish. Nice stout.
