choklat $7.99 for a 650 mL bottle. Dated 11/18/11 on bottom front of the bottle in green. Poured into a Southern Tier tulip.

a- pours a dark coffee color with a tan head that quickly dissipates into a ring leaving a trace of a thin film on top. thin lacing around the walls of the glass.

s- vanilla extract and chocolate, hints of lactose and brown sugar and coffee. basically smells like deliciousness.

t- very much like it smells: like slightly alcoholic milk chocolate. there's a dark chocolate bitterness, maybe from a bit of hops. sweet and delicious all around.

m- good level carbonation, silky and creamy. it's medium body, and though i expected a thicker beer, i'm glad it's not. i can hardly taste the 11% alcohol.

o- i'm just gonna go ahead and say it again: this is an overall delicious beer. i wish ST's creme brulee was this balanced. this takes the cake (no pun intended) for best desert beer i've tried.

22oz bottle split with my wife.

A: Pours in a solid stream of black ooze. Thin ring of mocha head. Nice legs.

N: Chocolate syrup. Big surprise there, really. Vanilla extract and tons more of the milk chocolate. There are hints of malt and then again..syrup.

T: Bitter chocolate mixed with the syrup. Surprisingly bitter and has an unpleasant chalky taste. Has some smoke and leather elements. Can’t tell if I like it.

M: Pleasantly carbonated with a decently thick body. Alcohol is well hidden.

O: A strange concoction that’s not as sweet as you’d expect and not as complex as you might want. Not great. Oh well.

750ml bottle served in a tulip glass.

A: Pours a brown to black color forming a medium bubbled tan head with low retention and lots of spotty lacings left in the glass

S: Strong smell of dark chocolate. Impressive. Vanilla, roasted malts, cofffe, earthy yeasts and some wood notes

T: Slightly sweet upfront. Again, very strong notes of dark chocolate. Roasted malts, vanilla, coffee, wood, brown bread, wood, earthy yeasts. End in mainly made of a mild roasted bitterness. A bit milky too

M: Creamy and heavy body. Low carbonation. Dark chocolate aftertaste

O: Excellent drinkability. Very smooth beer. A masterpiece
