This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a white to off white foamy one finger head that dissipated fairly quickly. Lacing is semi-thick and clingy.
The smell starts off with big sweet milk chocolate hovering above some caramel and a light vanilla.
The taste was extremely sweet through the chocolate. Light milky chocolate flavoring holds the fort down fairly nice and leads to a decent roasty and semi-grainy milky chocolate aftertaste running into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body. Its definitely sessionable.with a big smooth creaminess sticking to my tongue.
Overall, best thing about this beer is the texture, I really liked that. This one really drinks like a chocolate milkshake. I liked it for me, but do see not as much robust/roasty coffee-ness in the aroma/flavor.

Just a taster at Fox & Hound Aurora, served on nitro. It may be unfair to rate this right after a Not Your Father’s Root Beer, but let’s see how this one goes. Very deep brown, almost black, more like a Stout except the head is a tad lighter. Smell is distinctly of chocolate roast malt more than chocolate addition. But not roasty or astringent. Taste settles more into a sweet Stout neighborhood. Perhaps it’s because of the desire to bring in a cocoa character. After a few sips, though, my nose does pick up a sense of chocolate bar. But this actually comes in pretty dry. A little smoother than a roasty stout, a bit more flavor than a porter. That is not a bad position to be in.

Pour is a black with a small tan head. Aroma is a big chocolate milk. Hershey syrup comes to mind. Flavor is another dose of chocolate syrup with a lingering sweetness. Those cacao nibs are really doing their job here b/c you can’t get this much chocolate flavor from just the malt alone. Pretty tasty and will satisfy your sweet tooth.
