this is an awesome beer! I’ve had it on nitro-tap, nitro-can and bottled. Tap and can are very similar, you don’t get the same creamy head with the bottle, but its still great. Think guiness, sweetened slightly, and chocolate. real chocolate flavour. thick creamy head, never goes away, laces on the glass. i can drink a couple of these unlike other sweet stouts.

pours pitch black, heavy chocolate malt aroma! The taste is pretty much the same, smooth chocolate with some bitterness at the end, very creamy and delicious. This is one stout i’ve returned to for a while now!

Poured to a dark, almost black beer. Aromas of roasted malts and chocolate. Initial flavor of slightly sweet chocolate and malts, followed by roasted coffee finish. Probably the best chocolate stout I’ve ever had.

Crystal Malt? Nevermind that, this beer is delicious. I detect a bit of butter on the nose and a great bittersweet chocolate finish. Medium bodied (to full) mouth feel. There’s a small tan head that dissipates to a ring that stays until the end. Picked up a bottle from Trader Joes (greatest place in the world). Awesome beer.

Fantastic chocolate stout! I was expecting it to be very chocolaty, but I found it to strike a perfect balance where the chocolate was clearly present but not overpowering. I’ll be making sure I stock up on this one.

Bottle. A great bitter stoudt, Strong hints of cocoa in the Aroma and the taste. Very dark in color and is overall a great stout. Great when poured like a black and tan, over a fruity rasberry beer , It tastes like a chocolate covered cherry.
