Maybe the best palate of any beer I’ve ever tasted, just creamy chocolate with a hint of coffee and malt behind it. Tastes like a candy bar or maybe hershey syrup. I bet this beer would be outstanding over vanilla ice cream and think I should probably try that soon.

Poured black with lasting tan head. Cold coffee aroma. Light mouthfeel, bitter coffee taste with very little chocolate. Not very creamy, watered down with alcoholic finish.

pours a deep black with a tan head that disapates quickly. Has a mild chocolate taste with some malt. Taste like a blend of guinness and a hersey bar. Very drinkable but not very strong. I expected a little more. Large can

Pours nearly black with a light brown head. Malty and chocolate dominate the aroma. Taste is chocolate and a little malt. Not as "big’ as I thought it would be, but very drinkable.

Pint at Graydon’s Crossing (Plainfield). Arrived still slowly gathering it’s head. Short but very thick, like melted ice cream. Aroma of dark cocoa, slight coffee, and roasted sugar. Flavorful taste, including chocolate, bready malt, and finishes with dark chocolate. Great palate. A great beer.

Black with a decent tan head. Aroma is fairly weak, but it makes up for it in flavour. Lots of chocolate and malts, somewhat smokey/burnt. Well balanced, not a difficult drink at all. Good stuff!

Bottle. Pours very dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma of bitter chocolate. The taste was like chocolate coke or doctor pepper with chocolate syrup added. High carbonation.
