The White King
The North Brewery

Bottle purchased at The North Brewery in Endicott NY.

This one pours a nice dark black with a small head, and just a bit of lacing.

Smells like rich sweet chocolate, with some chai, and a bit of creamy coffee.

Luckily the chai is well balanced with the base- these things can get overwhelming sometimes. This has a really nice chocolatey malt character, with roasty coffee as well. It's very easy to drink and the alcohol is not present.

This is medium bodied, pretty creamy, with a normal level of carbonation.

Another wonderful stout from The North, they clearly know what they're doing in this arena.

Shared with JLindros.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice dark black hue with a fat one finger mocha head that fades to leave light wisps and creamy halo.

S - Aromas of chocolate, roast malts, nice chai spices. Really interesting.

T - Taste is loads of chai notes, vanilla, chocolate fudge, light roast malts. Very nice light roast with nice light nougat, good spice notes.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, lightly creamy, alcohol hidden well.

O - Overall this beer was rather unique. The chai spice is really nice though as it goes it gets is subtle. Still, overall a tasty beer.

Pours a nice fizzy bubbly dark 1/2 finger head, decent lacing long legs, pitch black.

Nose is interesting, bit yeasty, but then earthy chai, weird creamy spicy chai thing, mild chocolate and roast, malty, l8tr fudgey choc.

Taste is better, nice smooth chai, creamy chai tea and dark choc, fudgey fluffy nougat and little roast, chewy choc nougat, little bitter roast. Finish touch of choc, little sticky, mild fluffy nougat choc, some chai spices.

Mouth is chewy fluffy thick, nice carb.

Overall pretty nice, decent chai spices but detracts from you're fluffy nougat choc creamy base beer.
