fata2683 (837), Panama City, Florida, USA Sep 16, 2008 Bottle, pours dark black and smells like a chocolate bar. Taste is creamy and sweet with chocolate and a little bit vanilla. This is so rich and creamy that it’s a perfect desert beer. I’ve heard of people making beer floats with this, I can’t wait to try. f351c4v (404), Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 13, 2008 Pours a black color with a tan, nitro head. Aroma is sweet chocolate, menthol, and cocoa butter. Slick nitro body gives way to a semi-sweet chocolate body, with a touch of finishing bitterness. A standard. sleestak (180), Williamston, Michigan, USA Sep 10, 2008 Draught can. Pours like an shimmering mass of liquid ebony capped off by a perfect tan head. The smell is heavy on the Wonka with a fleeting trace of Willy to balance. Taste is initially Just Another Stout until the cocoa puffs kick in to offset the coffee and malt. Finish is slightly bitter and lingering. Velvety on the tongue and only gets better as the glass warms. Outfrickin’ standing, but even better on tap bretupdegraff (172), Fishers, Indiana, USA Sep 6, 2008 pours black with nice tan head. Aroma is of sweet chocolate - taste is chocolate milk and malt with a bitter aftertaste. nice palate with just enough carbonation - Very enjoyable - not my favorite but would enjoy again for sure hoplover (166), Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Sep 5, 2008 I need more hops! The balance is way off to me. Way too sweet. Very cloying. I’ve had chocolate stouts that I like very much but not this one. Yuk! SoberCajun (49), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Sep 4, 2008 Pours pitch black with a tan head that all but disappears. Smells like a bar of dark chocolate, taste is well-rounded with a lovely lingering chocolate. Smooth mouthfeel, goes down pretty easy, a nice overall effect. MrAleman (111), Wiltshire, England Aug 31, 2008 Updated: Sep 17, 2008Amazing how different this tastes to Youngs original, a lovely chocolate stout and is even sold in a Gordon Ramsay pub! Sadly I try to avoid chocolate/coffee flavoured stouts. Palidor19 (1750), Brandon, Florida, USA Aug 28, 2008 this a nice smooth beer, its bitter but not over powering in the taste, its silky and has a touch of orange like quality. great for the winter.
