Draft in Washington PA. Pours a deep brown color with a medium tan head. A rich nose of chocolates and coca. The flavor is a big milky chocolate forward beer with some ash. Very good. Nice example of the style.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a black color with a large creamy brown head that lingered forever and left great lacing. The aroma was somewhat bitter and toasty with notes of cookie dough, vanilla, cream and a touch of wood. The flavor was strong sweet vanilla, cream and marshmallow with light notes of chocolate syrup and cola. The finish was very long cream, vanilla and marshmallow. A bit thin in body but silky smooth. Well done.

On tap at Bites & Brew. Big beautifiul pour, took 5 minutes to do it. Black and nitro thick with a nice foaming appearance, like a good guinness; haven’t seen one like this for a while. Really somthin to look at. No hint of choco in the aroma, just a clean olfactory, perhaps the foam is abating the smell. Stoutish taste but again no hint of chocolate or if there is I can barely detect it. A little leather in the background. Fairly mild and goes down quite easy. Yes, a very friendly stout, however; even tho its styled as a sweet stout here, its more in line with a stout or dry stout. Nice finish and overall good dark beer experience, very little if any associated bitterness.
