Bottle courtesy of Zer0. Poured a hazy medium amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is big sweet chocolate. The flavour is heavy sweet with a sweet chocolate palate. It’s all chocolate and way too sweet for any self respecting beer drinker!

Bottle shared thanks to Zer0. Pours clear golden with a minimal white head. Aroma of cocoa and caramel. Flavour is heavy sweet. Not a nice brew.

It wasn’t even able to finish this beer, it was too nasty. It has an overly sweet and chemical taste of fake chocolate. Really, really bad.

eugene becaùme a little panic-ish and sick by seeing this bottle .. pours clear , light brown. overpowering chocolate VS white-spices.. taste is chocolate that has been aging for years . with spices. very very weird, and bad . aftertaste is just freaking bad . rotten chocolate ( if that even exists) with a touch of dust . i dont know how they are able to rape chocolate this painfully . maybe they take all leftover of all chocolate available in belgium , including the old ones, the failed ones, ... i’d drainpour it if it were’nt for the fact i like the rotten-drain-smell more than this, so i wouldnt wanna loose that and make my drains stink like this ... avoid ..

Small, with a quite nice hazy orange colour. That’s the only nice thing. Smell is cheap chocolate, sugar, a lot, and some fruity note... Taste is the same cheap chocolate, sweet, and now I recognize also a strange artificial cherry syrup taste too, strange! I don’t know, I cannot call this beer, for me it’s not, I will never buy no more, even if I there are worse beers.

Bottle at home in London with Chris and Lyoli. Pours clearish copper with a thick, creamy khaki head. Nice chocolate and cherry aroma. It actually smells really nice, like a rich chocolate cake topped with cherries or strawberries. Medium to big sweet flavor, plenty of chocolate-covered fruits like strawberries and cherries, some strong artificial flavors, hints of bubblegum. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Sugary finish, further artificial flavors. It comes close to working at times, but in the end it is just far too artificial and a touch sickly sweet.

33 cl. bottle sampled @ Bier Central. Psyched to try this because this is supposed to be the very worst that Belgium has to offer beer-wise. Pours brownish amber with an off-white head. It was described as tasting & smelling like cheap Ukrainian Chocolate Bubblegum from the 1990’s which I can believe for the “chocolate” flavour on this one does remind me of some Ukranian chocolate I once had. Smell is chemical chocolate, gross, chocolate syrup, chocolate additives, fake, very cheap, old chocolate with the white stuff on it, cheap liquor it is both interesting & appalling at the same time. Taste follows same suit, cheap chocolate bubblegum blended with cheap chocolate, old, alcohol, chemical, chocolate additives, booze, syrup,… Its mesmerizing. Artificial syrupy feel. It is like ST Choklat gone horribly wrong. It is quite fascinating & hard to rate on a beer scale. I can imagine this getting huge in quite a few places in the world. People are used to far too high quality chocolate in too many places :)

Imported from my RateBeer account as Floris Chocolate (by Brouwerij Huyghe):
Aroma: 3/10, Appearance: 2/5, Taste: 1/10, Palate: 2/5, Overall: 2/20, MyTotalScore: 1/5
20/I/13 - 33cl bottle @ home - BB: I/2013 (yes, I "had" to drink it, before it went bad) (2013-85) Thanks to Marc for the bottle! Thanks because now I can tick it without actually having to buy it. :-)
Clear amber beer, irregular white head, unstable, bit adhesive. Aroma: very sugary, forest fruit candy, bubble gum, lemonade, grenadine syrup, hint of pralinée, alcohol, ersatz chocolate (koetjesreep!), sweet liquor. Despite the complexity of the aroma it smells very bad. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: cough syrup or some other medicine from my youth, candied orange peel, sugary, very sweet, alcohol, can't say I taste any chocolate though... Aftertaste: alcohol, sugar, cough syrup, pretty bad. Man, I'm so happy I finally got to try this one! :p
