Poured 16 oz. from the tap into a shaker pint glass at the brewery/restaurant.

A nice one finger cocoa and creamy brown coffee head, with nice retention and staying power slowly falls and inches it's way down to hinting a collar. A nice dark walnut brown body compliments and is opaque. Looks like chocolate in a glass.

Nice good small hinting roast character on the nose. Light sensing drip coffee and large airy powdery and very dry cocoa. Real nicely balanced, and pleasing to the olfactory senses, but with a sense of over dry grain a bit.

Palate hints with a perfect milk chocolate body and mid palate milky cocoa flavor. Great creamy finish a bit on first sip, and strangely a bit dry and almost crackery. Dryness hints at bitter dry chocolate finish, but more milk chocolate flavors on first sips. Palate is light but flavors explode nicely and carry easily, with an almost sessionable light quality.

Overall there is a bit of chalky quality to the beer, with it's exceptional emphasis on powder and dry, but it's light and richly flavored and with it's lightness comes supper easy drinkability. This one is going to be a winner for the brewery, probably a flagship brew, or at least should be.
