Originally labelled as Chocolate Tom. Label was changed to read Old Tom With Chocolate circa 2011.
Old Tom with chocolate is an indulgent rich combination of Robinsons’ award winning Old Tom and the finest cocoa. It is a superior full bodied strong ale filled with the flavour of ripe malt and velvety smooth chocolate teased together with an inspired touch of Madagascan bourbon vanilla.
Chocolate Tom is a deliciously indulgent addition to the Old Tom range, with a recipe developed by Robinsons and the renowned chocolatier Simon Dunn.

Clear, dark ruby pour with small and short lasting, slightly off-white head. Smell is malty with a hint of chocolate. Medium body with oily texture and soft carbonation. Mostly bitter taste with subtle sweet notes to it. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malts, coffe grains, toffee and nuts. Nicely balanced, maybe a bit too watery, needs more punch to it. Overall, nice and enjoyable.

Pours ruby brown into the bottle with a creamy head, nice lacing at the outset. Aroma is dark fruit and chocolate, with the chocolate taking the lead role over time. Taste is milk chocolate, hazelnut, and light vanilla. Medium bodied, very smooth, with a warming, chocolatey finish that has just enough underlying fruitiness to keep things from getting monotone. Very pleasant stuff. Enjoy it as a dessert beer.

33cl bottle. Poured copper with a thick white head. Lots of chocolate in aroma, butterscotch. Flavor has butterscotch, mild woody notes and truckload of chocolate. Mild coffee in finish. Quite nice, simple.

Hazy ambet-brown color with small head. Aroma is toffee, malt, vanilla, chocolate. Taste is more toffee, malt, not too sweet, nice bitter chocolate character. Or actually, it’s milk chocolate, but not sweet. Smooth mouthfeel. Really really nice, well-balanced.

Color chocolate, oscura. Aroma intenso a chocolate. Sabor potente a chocolate. Lleva chocolate en la receta. Estupendamente combinado con la malta tostada,con cuerpo moderado y adecuada carbonatación. Muy conseguida, una excelente cerveza de postre o como copa.
