Originalissima birra prodotta con carrube, avena e fave di cacao.
Di colore scuro impenetrabile, ha un cappello di schiuma che ricorda il cioccolato al latte.
La grande quantità di avena le conferisce una cremosità quasi da cioccolata calda, mentre il discreto tenore alcolico rimanda al ripieno di un cioccolatino al liquore.
Prima classificata Migliore Birra Artigianale Italiana 2006 categoria Altri Cereali
Cinque Stelle della Guida alle Birre d’Italia ediz. Slow Food 2011
Medaglia di Platino ai Mondiali de la Bière, Strasbourg ed. 2010
Si abbina ai dolci, ma anche ai formaggi molto stagionati ed ai piatti di selvaggina.

Light brown. Fairly hazy. Oaty nose with a funny herbal character. Lots of chocolate on the palate - sweet, sort of a sticky honey note. Overall, there are some fun oaty, chocolatey things going on but it fails to come together.

A deep dark ale with reddish hues and thick creamy moka head. A pleasant aroma of chocolate, espresso coffee, and light cherries. In mouth, a nice sweet moka chocolate malt with cherry blossoms, smooth and silky, vanilla and nutella. Mamamia! On tap at Max’s on Broadway, Dec. 29 2008.

Bottle Swing-top: Poured a carbonated black with tan head. Aroma was a bit vinegar and chocolate. Taste is a bit funky with slight hints of chocolate.

Bottle. Muddy brown beer with a malty aroma, and a malty, lightly spiced and lightly dry flavour. Overall a reasonable beer that tastes very much like a Belgian style beer.

Boy aint this a weird beer. Poured a dark dark brown, very near opaque. Moderate foamy head. Aroma is plenty weird, notes of soy sauce, meat, molasses, maple liquer, we are talking SATB territory here. Mercifully the flavor is different with a def bitter chocolate tone dominating the affair. Medium bodied, overall sweet profile with a chocolate and caramel finish. Light herbal character rises in the finish too. Fairly smooth and rounded mouthfeel, pretty easy drinking for an odd duck.

I was really looking forward to this one, but found it disappointing. Very dark brown in color. Fizzy head. Some chocolate and fruit notes in the taste. One or two sips, though and I was done. This was a very expensive beer to give a try and I wish I’d liked it more. Just not my thing, I guess.
