A - Served a dark black color with a thin layer of frothy chocolate head. Head fades quickly leaving behind some good lace.
S - Aroma is full of chocolate with some roasted aroma and a bit of burnt malt and cocoa nibs.
T - Starts off with some strong roasted bittersweet chocolate. Through the middle a touch of hops comes through with a touch of sweetness and a bit of burnt chocolate and espresso. The finish is a mix of roasted malts with some burnt flavors and more chocolate.
M - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a dry and slightly thick mouthfeel.
D - Very drinkable. Really strong chocolate style that dominates the flavor and nose. Really nice take on the style.

On-tap at Magnolia
A: The pour is a very dark brown color, nearly black, with a sturdy mocha colored head.
S: The nose is primarily chocolate with a fair amount of roasted malts, some espresso, some more roasted malt (possibly burnt) and alcohol. Which is sort of strange for a beer that's only 5.3%.
T: The flavors are nowhere near as intense as I would have anticipated or hoped. Moderate chocolate and cocoa flavor with some slightly sweet bread pudding sort of flavor as well. Mild roasted malts are present as well.
M: The body is medium with a low to medium carbonation.
D: Like many of the other beers at Magnolia, this was a let down. Just sort of bland and what was there wasn't all that impressive.

Sampled 11/13/2010 at the brewpub.
Pours dark brown/black with brown head. Some lacing but not much retention.
Aroma is roast, burnt, toffee, and booze.
Flavor is roast, booze, no Belgium to be found here. Hot, sweet, and sticky, (from my head to my feet). Bitter and nutty too.
Body is medium/heavy, drinkability is there as a heavy stout but it just isn't Belgium enough. Its more like an Imperial Stout without the
Ƭίcƙ.
