[Cask at the Royal Standard, Wooburn Common] A glossy pitch black pour with a ring of coffee coloured head; aroma of chocoalte syrup; rather thin in the mouth, but with a smooth sweet chocoalte taste, with a definite chocoalte moose character; followed by a pleasantly bitter chocalatey finish. A dessert in a glass.

Bottle from the Purple Moose Brewery Shop, Porthmadog. Very dark red with no head. Chocolate is potent in its aroma, and you can still smell it with your glass sat half a metre away on the table. It’s a little thinner in taste as it’s not an overly strong tasting ale, with a slightly weak texture.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at Swindon Beer Festival 26/10/2017. Near black in colour, with a slight, beige, head. Rich, milk chocolate notes, some dark fruits, vanilla oak, a hint of liquorice, before a gentle finish. Enjoyable.

Bottle from the Brewery shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours clear dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of chocolate, vanilla, toffee. Taste is more of the same. Sweet finish.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - dark brown to black with red chinks. Nice fluffy head. Nose - big toffee and light chocolate. Taste - more chocolate and toffee. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture. Dry finish. Overall - good-is.

330ml bottle from Stori, Bala. Pours a very dark brown, small pale tan head. Aroma is fairly promising with nice dark chocolate mouse notes. Taste falls short in comparison, very thin on the palate with fleeting chocolate and vanilla notes that disperse quite quickly. Not a great chocolate porter.
