--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Clear mahogay colour, small head. Huge milk chocolate aroma. Sweet with medium to full body and rounded mouthfeel. Instant milk chocolate powder kills everything in it's way. No trace of beer, except for some warming alcohol. Infantile and cheap tasting.

Aus der handlichen 0,75er Flasche. Optisch dunkles Braun, gut Perlung, in der Nase Zuckerwatte, auch im Trunk recht süß, dann Vanille, Schoko, spannend. Kein typischer Schokotrunk. Hohe Drinkability.

Sticks. Appearance - beer-specific bottle cap with a simple label. Clear dark ruby color. From - tulip Taste - malt, chocolate, cocoa. coffee. Feels like mix of expresso and then some malt. Alcohol is somewhat hidden. Not bad.

Bottle. Nose is chocolate, fruity plummy edge to it, touch of coffee, fruit cake. Taste is chocolate, more coffee than the nose suggests, leading to a fruity and milk chocolate finish with a little spice and pepper. Fine

Servida en cáliz. Color marrón oscuro , espuma beige cremosa y compacta. Ya al servirla desprende deliciosos aromas que te hacen salivar. En nariz se aprecia chocolate, moca, toffe, pasas, avellanas, algo de café, ciruelas pasas...En boca es un deleite, definitivamente compleja, agradable a mas no poder, cacao siempre presente marcando una suave melodia de fondo, rodeado de infinitas notas especiadas, dulces, licorosas... Si dejas que la copa vaya tomando temperatura irán surgiendo mas dulces complejos y cautivadores aromas. Considero esta cerveza digna de embriagarte con ella al menos una vez en la vida.
