Bottle... This beer rocks!... The aroma is that of a mocha cappacino. It’s a very, very dark brew with creamy, smooth coffee and big chocolate flavor. It finishes silky yet crisp as it is very well balanced. It’s not sweet, nor does it have a bite. Just a delicious desert beer!

Smooth and slightly bitter, with a slight chocolate taste.

It seemed thin as it was poured into the glass. But this creation is exsquisite. silky smooth going down and easy to drink. The finish doted with the bittersweet chocolate. Absolutly lovely.

Very light, smooth drinking beer with more creamy overtones than chocolate - reminds me of some of the irish cream stouts. Not a lot in the flavor department but very drinkable. I could put back a few of these in one sitting, unlike some stouts.

Pitch black apperance with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate and coffee. Flavor is rich chocolate and caramel. Some coffee notes are present in the flavor. Wow! This is one badass stout. This may be better than Sam Smith’s. This is a must try!

A good beer from the bottle. A great beer from the tower. Black in appearance until held up to light. Sweet, rich aroma. Nice head particularly from the tower. Wonderful chocolate finish. A great beer.

Awesome! The aroma reminded me of really good fresh made coffee. Not bad. Taste and palate is silk smooth and very well balanced. You will find a stout that is stronger and heavier, but few that are more delicious.
