Acquired this out of curiosity..didnt curiosity kill the cat? Anyway, poured a half finger head with okay reception. Hints of chocolate and roasted malts which gave away the taste quite easily. Yepp, taste it similar to smell but has a suprisingly good but plain finish. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing? The creamy texture sticks to the palate but probably to the ribs as well. Overall this is an okay stout. Not a lip smacker but was worth a try.

Neat label but otherwise a pretty straightforward, unexceptional stout. It did not bring the chocolate notes forward that I expected given the name. In fact, it seemed to be just a plain, normal, slightly watery-in-the-finish American stout. No harm done, but not as exciting as a lot of stouts. Dark, dark color, decent head, nose not outstanding, just typical stout malt & hops. The same for the flavor, with some of the more complex and bitter notes in some stouts not present here. Drank 26 July 2016.
