Poured a great deep black color, with a dark mocha head. It gav offe a great aroma of dark, bittersweet chocolate, but not overpowering. Overall, it was extremely smooth and drinkable, and it only got more flavorful and sensual as it warmed up. Will definitely pick up another soon.

Contrasting this with Southern Tier Chokolat, the chocolate flavors in this are much more subtle, and enhance the flavor of the mild-mannered stout. Meanwhile, the Chokolat kicks you in the face with powerful chocolate. I like both...a lot.

A: This beer pours black with one and a half fingers of dark khaki colored head. The foam takes awhile to settle, leaving decent lacing as it drinks.

S: The nose is Vanilla, milk chocolate, and a touch of marshmallow. Smells great.

T: This beer is nice and sweet. I get milk chocolate and vanilla right up front, but it's not overpowering. Sweet, but not too sweet. As it moves to the middle I get some roast and bitters on the back end. It's well balanced.

M: Full bodied beer. It's smooth, coating, but not too sticky. The sweetness hits the palate first but it transitions wonderfully into bitters as it fades.

O: Very nice beer. I didn't have a lot of expectations for this beer, so I am pretty darn impressed. The flavors are great, it's sweet but not overpowering, it's a great dessert beer. I would drink this again, and would recommend it to someone looking for a milder version of Southern Tier's Choklat.
