Monkeypower (82), Odense C, Denmark Aug 2, 2008 Canned beer. Black with a finetextured, light brown head. Not much aroma though a bit chocolate and nuts. The flavour though is mainly chocolate with notes of nuts and burnt malts. maugus4ever (121), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA Jul 31, 2008 Pours black with a small head and no lacing (at least in the glass I was given). This is a true dessert beer, and it is very chocolaty and malty. Almost no hop presence at all but still enjoyable. timmy300 (199), bloomington, Illinois, USA Jul 29, 2008 drinking chocolate stout makes me feel like a kid again, a drunk kid. this is a well balanced ale that is sweet and chocolaty without being over the top. a nice way to have desert with dinner. MuttyD (93), Cambridge, USA Jul 28, 2008 Well, for its style, this is one chocolately and malty beer. Very creamy on the palate, chocolate flavor seems almost forced, but it works. More of a dessert beer than anything. m4rest88 (216), Beverly Hills, California, USA Jul 27, 2008 Pours with a dark black hue with a mostly diminishing head. The aroma is a strong chocolate scent mixed with some coffee. There is some molasses if one smells very closely.
It is full beer to the palate with very light fizzy carbonation. Definitely has some coffee roast flavor mixed with some expresso. Def. a filling beer. Good to have after a nice dinner!!!!! zappafan99 (462), South Carolina, USA Jul 27, 2008 Taste: 7/8 bottle(28-2-9) Looks: Nice black, with clinging top. Aroma: Espresso and chocolate. Taste: Nice smooth and silky texture. Coffee roast and chocolate flavor. Full bodied and tasty. Blom (390), Odense, Denmark Jul 22, 2008 This is quite the classic. It has a fantastic chocolate aroma, full of cocoa too. The flavours however do not live up to the inital sugar rush in the nose, being more roasted than sweet. cyrenaica (435), Milton, Ontario, Canada Jul 19, 2008 500ml bottle
5.2% ABV
I tried this beer on June 28, 2008 after purchasing from the Queen’s Quay LCBO outlet in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a very dark brown with a generous light brown head. The aroma was roasted malt, and chocolate. The mouthfeel was full-bodied, slightly creamy, and medium carbonated. The flavour roasted malt, chocolate, and cocoa to give it a ’dry’ feel.
