This is essentially, Neo-Noir with chocolate added.

A: Pours a dark brown with some ruby highlights. A khaki colored head forms, and rises to two fingers. Good retention and lace left behind.
S: Big milk chocolate up front, and some baked bread aromas. Very simple but definitely shows of the chocolate.
T: Again, milk chocolate, and baked bread/light toasted malts. Some obvious sweetness, and that is it, and kind of finishes too quickly for me.
M/O: A medium body with soft carbonation. Ultra smooth. It is good for what it is, and fine to drink once. Though I don't see me coming back to this often.

I think others will like this a lot more than me, as an ultra traditionalist when it comes to lagers. I wanted to try it, because Neo-Noir is one of my favorite Dunkels. The chocolate is certainly there, but not much more for balance. I also just want Neo-Noir back, though well made for what it is. Even if its not for me.
