Can from Half Time in Poughkeepsie, NY. Possibly last place in USA to have it. Pours very dark brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is chocolate with hints of cherry. Med body or so. Flavor is chocolate, dark malt and some cherry. I might like more cherry, but this is good. Fairly dry and dark malt bitter. Like it.

12 oz. Aroma is chocolate, cherry, wet stone, dark bread. Pours a very dark brown to nearly black with a one finger beige head with great retention. Taste is moderately sweet and lightly bitter with flavors of baker's chocolate, cherry, dark bread. Nothing wrong with the mouthfeel. Tasty.

Dark chocolate nose. Muddy brown, thick tan head, beautiful lace. Dark chocolate, mint. Black cherry finish. Medium body, easy carbonation. Rather odd, but enjoyable.

Chocolate colored can. Nose is damp aged half burnt campfire wood. Pour is big and black with a tan head that fades rapidly. I'm not impressed with this brew, it comes across like old cold burnt coffee from the bottom of a coffee pot that has been sitting all day on the burner, slightly laced with unsweetened dark bakers chocolate. Cherry is practically non existent. Finish is also slightly off burnt bitter campfire coffee, which is hard to take and very difficult. Quite mouth coating.

Pour is a black with a small tan head. Aroma is a pretty good coffee and bakers chocolate, I did not get any cherry. Flavor is pretty much the same a nice roasted coffee and bitter bakers chocolate and the cherry was absent. If they just called this a chocolate stout I would have been in agreement. This is fine and has a decent flavor for a low abv stout.
