(From a can with a widget) This stout has long been a favorite. Too bad I can’t find it in the bottle anymore. It is a black beer with the creamiest khaki head you ever saw. Wow! maybe there’s something to this little widget! The aroma is of faint roast. It’s a bit muffled from the dense head. This beer always serves as my personal high mark for how good the palate of a beer can be. It’s the smoothest thing ever. It’s like drinking a melted chocolate bar. The flavor is of creamy milk chocolate and malt. Like a Frosty from Wendy’s, but 1000 times better. An stout for all time! Long live it!

On tap at Mile Square in Hoboken. Chocolaty and delicious. It has a fine smooth finish. Not as good as a Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, but still tasty.

Even from a bottle, this is a GREAT beer! Poured dark and beautiful with a defined chocolate smell and delicate caramel colored head. Your first taste is a heavenly blend of silky smooth chocolate and coffee. It is a sweet and milky taste that reminds you of dessert! Pour me another!

Delicious! I am a fan of dark tasty beers and love to try new ones all the time. I saw this in my local packy (Beverage Warehouse, VT) and just wanted to give it a shot! It is wonderful. Extra dark and tasty. I held it up to the light in a glass and could not see through it! I only got 1 bottle but I will be going back for more! Cheers -Kevin

Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate flavors everywhere. The aroma is of course chocolate and roasted barley. The texture is smooth and velvety. The taste is of sweet malt and bitter chocolate. A relaxing after dinner or late-night-by-the-fire kind of beer. Excellent.

Enjoyable beer. Very pronounced chocolate taste more so then other chocolate stouts i have tried. From nitro can very nice head and of course amusing sand waterfall creating the head did notice a little metallic taste but that did not take away from the beer.
