Pours a dark brown/black with small deep tan head. Very rich, great looking beer. Has hints of malt, lots of chocolate (no surprise there), and no bitterness. Very smooth beer. Aroma seems to intensify as time progresses.

Pours black with a nice head. Awesome chocolate aroma. Flavor is very nice... a hint of chocolate, but not overpowering though. Good creamy texture. Worth a try.

This was the best stout I have had in a bottle in a long time. Smooth, creamy, delicious, mildly sweet. It was marvelous. Highly recommended.

Hands down the best beer I’ve ever had. From pour to finish there is no comparison. It’s thick with a creamy head. You can almost eat it.The smell is of chocolate with a little vanilla. Beautiful dark color. The flavor has a slightly bitter chocolate that goes down as smooth as anything I’ve ever tasted. After the first bottle I ever had, I thought I would never taste anything better. Then I tried the can. That nitro ball makes all the difference. This stout is a miracle. I want to buried with it.

the mecha of all beers. I have had this beer in all formats, (can, bottle, tap) and its simply outstanding no matter what. The appearance is a dark thick creamy body, with a creamy slightly brown head. it smells like chocolate milk, and taste like it to. Its rich, sweet, velvety, and smooth, and seems to only get better as it warms. chocolate is present throughout, with just a touch of bitterness, it goes down smooth and creamy and the head is with you to the last sip. like drinking a nice glass of chocolate milk. hard to find anything wrong with this beer.

This is a delicious beer. It is so smooth, so dark and oh so chocolatey. It is a great dessert beer. I don’t know if I could have this with a meal, but I think it would be an incredible compliment to a nice piece of chocolate cake or maybe in a float. I am glad you can find it everywhere.

Dark chocolate and beer do make a great blend. Great! The beer poured jet black into a GLASS. the SMELL OF CHOCOLATE AND COFFEE FILLED THE ROOM. great STUFF!
