Black pour. The aroma is roasted malt and chocolate. The flavor is well balanced with dark roast malt and chocolate. I noticed little if any hemp. That part seems kind of gimmicky to me as this is simply a decent stout, which is fine.

355ml bottle. Quasi black colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Roasty, chocolately and minimally grainy, dark malty aroma, hints of dark chocolate, a touch of rye bread, pumpernickel, treacle, funky, yeasty whiffs of horse dung. Taste is roasty dark malty, slightly chocolately, quite bitter hoppy, dry, hints of chocolate, a touch of cocoa and treacle, pumpernickel, funky yeasty overtones of horse dung and turpentine. Rather ordinary Stout with a strange, slightly chemical touch probably from the 420 strain. OK.

355ml bottle from RusBeerShop in Moscow. Less than a month to the best before date. Pours dark brown with a tall tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee, ash, and marijuana. Taste is slightly sweet, ashy, roasted malt. Medium bitter finish. Didn’t detect any chocolate.

This review was imported from my RateBeer ratings.
12 oz. bottle.
AROMA: Lots of "funk" with a hint of fresh lemon.
APPEARANCE: Pours an opaque black with a small, dirty tan head that dissipates quickly.
TASTE: Slightly sour. The chocolate is very subtle and is really only detectable during the finish. The hemp flavor is moderate and dissipates quickly.
MOUTHFEEL: Full-bodied with a slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is average and the finish is mild and long.
OVERALL: This one left me a little wanting ... wanting more chocolate, more stout, and more "funk". I've tried their 420 Mango Kush and found it to be very forward with the flavors. The Chocolate Stout version seems to be more reserved. A little TOO reserved, if you ask me. Which is why I much prefer the Mango Kush over the Chocolate Stout.
