A full-bodied, brown ale with a rich chocolate taste created from roasted chocolate and caramel malts. Topped with Czech Saaz hops to give it a spicy flavor and aroma.

Draught at Tadg’s. Slightly more fragrant, richer, more bitter than the brown. More roasted, with coffee and lots of cocoa. Nice stuff. Old rating: Bottle 6/3/7/3/14. Near black, low head. Burnt malt aroma: chocolate, coffee, caramel. Well roasty malt. Dense malt flavor, with chocolate and coffee. Rather sweet, but not overdone. Slightly fruity, nutty. Finish of roasted malt, alcohol, a bit sweet, light on the hops. Not amazingly original, but good and well balanced.

Bottle. Rich brown ale. Good looking beer with a dark brown body with a frothy, light brown head. Aroma of caramel, roasted grain, bread and herbs. The flavor is heavily sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately to heavily sweet and lightly bitter and lightly acidic. Medium to full body with a creamy texture and lively carbonation. As rich as this is, it is way too sweet, bordering on being cloying.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of berries and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, wood, alcohol, and berries. The alcohol leaves a slight burn in the mouth. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottle from Greenwood Gourmet Grocery in Greenwood near Crozet, VA. Bottling date October 4. Pours dark strawberry red (strawberry brown?) with a medium head. Big malt aroma (caramel, toffee) with a hint of spiciness. Taste is very much the same with some earthiness and dark fruits. Chocolate comes through in the finish. Pretty good..
