Dark chocolate aroma, low carbonation, delicious dark bitter chocolate, smooth, like liquid chocolate, well balanced sweet bitter linger

A- Black as night. Looks almost like an imperial stout.

S- Tons of chocolate upfront. Also some vanilla, and maybe a hint of caramel.

T- Just like the smell, tons of chocolate upfront and roasted malts. A hint of alcohol appears on swallowing. Then more dark chocolate, roasted malts, smokiness, and a hint of licorice.

M- Incredibly creamy, smooth mouthfeel.

O- Overall, really good beer. Delivers exactly as promised: tons of chocolate flavor. If it has a problem, it's that it is too simple. The chocolate and malt flavors are delicious but I really don't detect much else going on. Still excellent if you want a good chocolate stout.

Poured into 2 pub glasses, this was a treat for my girlfriend. Pacman yeast lends a hand to the mouthfeel of this sweet dessert stout, which sets Rogue ales apart from the rest. Obvious chocolate flavor that unfolds in stages. Chocolate syrup up front rolls into a very rich fudge brownie flavor. A good whiff of alcohol too, but it comes off like a chocolate liqueur. There's also some honey flavor in there, and the malt is almost totally subsumed by chocolate. Aside from drinking, this would be great for baking. It's mighty sweet, but light bodied enough to enjoy a big glass.

Bomber with a few months age on it poured into a wine glass.

A: Pours a dark slightly caramelish brown color with a 1-1.5 finger mocha colored head. Not a lot of lacing or creamy look to it. Actually a bit of a coke like body.

S: Smells of nice milk chocolate, reminds me a bit of a whopper actually. Pretty one note, but accomplishes what the name sets out for.

T: Oh man, what a disappointment. I had fond memories of single chocolate stout and this doesn't live up to that memory at all. Tastes like flat coke, with a harsh chemical feelign going down. The after taste is very swiss miss hot coco flavor.

M: Thin bodied, the after taste makes my teeth feel like they're rotting. Very chemical, sticky, just gross.

O: Rogue's done it again. I always forget there is a reason I stay away from Roguie but every once and a while they suck me in. Do you like an old vanilla coke with Swiss Miss poured in? Me either. Stay away from this one.

not sure why I waited so long to try this wonderful beer. its always on the shelf, and its fairly priced, what have I been doing? anyways, this pours a flat dark brown color with a luxurious creamy head in the tan range, like a nitro pour. the nose is really chocolaty, a lot like youngs or something, its real chocolate, not just chocolate malt. It reminds me of hot chocolate mix or nesquik or something. nice roast, more bitter than sweet on the chocolate in nose and taste. the flavor is really chocolate forward, like a higher end organic dark chocolate bar. its really lovely, especially because its all that flavor with out the sweetness. the feel is velvety smooth, super soft, creamy, and light for the color, although it is full bodied. carbonation is also a lot like a nitro beer, airy and livening. what I like most about this beer is its chocolate intensity without being sugary at all. I think its every bit as good as the regular chocolate stout, and a pretty good bang for your buck. not to be ignored! take it from me.
