440ml nitro can. Poured a dark black color with a thick and creamy tan head. The smell of chocolate hits the nose right away. And of course the flavor is chocolate. Creamy smooth from start to finish.

Bottle. Pours black with creamy cocoa head. Aroma of hops and perhaps cinnamon; later chocolate liqueur notes, as liquid warms.Chocolate prominent in initial taste followed by musty, slightly sour bittersweetness, malt and coffee. Reminds of the last swallows of a diluted kalua cocktail without the sweetness.

You can smell the chocolate, you can taste the chocolate, you fan feel the chocolate (I don’t really know how you do that but you can) This is a deally dry, and interesting tasting stout. It has much of Irish Stout in it’s overall taste. I’m not super crazy about dry stout but with the chocolate flavor this beer is worth a taste.

The aroma has alot of chocolate, which gives you a preview of the flavor. No hop aroma. Flavor is well balanced and not too sweet. One of my favorites!

Bottle: Poured a Deep Dark Brown with a creamy tan head. The aroma was malty and chocolaty. The flavor was a roasted malt with a nice kick in the mouth of chocolate in the after taste. Finally a chocolate stout that has a noticeable flavor of chocolate.

Black with tan brown head. Very light malty aroma. Not much of an aroma. Very thin and watery like a Guinness. A decent drink but nothing to write home about...
