Can from JR's. Brown clear beer with a nice head. Smell is a little off and farmy. Does have the big real chocolate flavor but I think its more like milk chocolate rather than dark chocolate. Its sort of like dull milk chocolate if you want a better description. Like nestle quick minus the sugar. Not bad, and better tasting than most chocolate beers I had. Even has an aftertaste that is reminiscent of chocolate. Quite flat on the palate and rather smooth. Finish is nothing but what? Chocolate? You got it. My wife is a chocolate lover but didn't really care for the taste of this one. I found it to be quite acceptable.

Chocolate fudge malt and hay aroma. Dark chestnut brown with large tan head. Moderately sweet dark chocolate malt and mildly bitter hay flavor. Okay body. Very chocolately.

12 ounce can from Festival Northland, 12/23/21. Clear dark brown, thin foamy brown head, good retention. Aroma of intense cocoa, not much else. Taste is cocoa, cola, tootsie roll. Thin. Meh.

Pour is a dark brown with a foamy tan head. Aroma is a pretty decent hit of cocoa powder. Flavor is flavor is more cocoa powder. Not much of a dunkel with this, it is full on about the chocolate. Decent beer and full of chocolate flavor I just don't know if I would ever want more the one of these.

Very dark brown with a large foamy tan head that lingered and left good lacing. Sweetish and toasty with malt and cocoa notes. Long finish. Medium body.

Sample at Mariano's, Westmont. Oh yes, a big chocolate and caramel nose, even in this tiny glass. Looks deceptively like a light porter, with a thin ring of fine foam. A song chocolate cake taste, even chocolate frosting. Fidget background, very little bitterness. As the barkeep said, it's a beer you'd have once at dessert, then move on to the next one.

This beer is an interesting experiment combining pastry Stout and Dunkel weisse. It almost kind of works but not quite. I think a little less emphasis on the chocolate and it would have been a lot better.
