Medium beige, lasting head. Deep dark brown colour. Aroma with raspberry., malt and rich dark chocolate. Flavour with notes of coffee and cocolate. Full bodied. Lovely silky/ creamy palate. Balanced bitterness/sweetness in the aftertaste.

This beer offers a hearty aroma of chocolate with a little vanilla and licorice mixed in the background. It is a black solution with a good thick brown head and good lacing. This moderately thick bodied beer is smooth and spreads through the mouth nicely. The well developed chocolate taste offers a gentle hint of coffee at the point of swallowing. The taste of chocolate is left lingering in the throat.

Nitro can. jet black with a creamy, lasting nitro head. Roasted malt and dark chocolate aroma. Flavor is a complex melding of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted malt and floral hops. Velvety smooth texture and a Loonnng chocolatey, roasted finish makes this one of the best sweet stouts I’ve had.

Draught Can. Thanks to Bob Mack for the can! Pours a deep dark brown with a pleasant rolling head that builds up slowly. Has an aroma of sweet chocolate. Nice flavor of dark chocolate, but not too overpowering. Lingers on the palate. A quite excellent sweet stout that I highly recommend.

Smooth stout, dark, opaque appearence, had a hint of Kulula taste to it but was not overbearing. Better than most chocolate beers. Would not drink more than one of these in a setting though. Good for sipping on while eating peanuts.

This is a very nice brew, not to sweet, as some other sweet stouts can be....very solid in all departments....a winner, especially considering how widely aval. it is!

A real treat. Pours dark with a great head. A nice chocolate malt smell. A very tasty bitter chocolate flavor.
