With chocolate beers I feel like the options are you either try to have a light hand to bring forth the characteristics of the underlying beer and the additional chocolate, or you just go whole hog on the chocolate. This beer is the latter: very much tastes like a glass of thick rich chocolate milk. I’m a fan.

Tap at Hops n’ Vines, Washington Avenue, Miami Beach. Pours almost black with a lasting off white head. Aroma of milk chocolate, light roasting, malt. Fairly sweet, light roasted bitterness. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Finish is dry, quite bitter, with a creamy edge.

Can from Publix. Clear dark brown with a small tan head that vanishes quickly. The aroma is similar to sticking your nose in a can of cocoa. Sweet chocolate. Nice chocolate flavor thing going on but very little Porter.

12 oz can poured. Had to do a double take on this can to make sure it was a beer. Definitely unique in appearance and taste. Pours very cola like. Rapid fade fizz head. Aroma is a big chocolate dessert, with a tiny bit of mint. Flavor is tasty milk chocolate, hints a bready malt. Cool, minty finish. Worked nicely for a pre-noon beer. Good stuff.
