Mild bubbly head fades quickly, touch of lacing, very dark pretty much black
Nose is loaded with chocolate, little chocolate biscuity cookie and cereal, but straight up bakers chocolate and cocoa, cookie dough, little roasty note, touch if coffee, not much else, chocolate overpowers everything.
Taste more chocolate but more from the malts this time, biscuity toasted cocoa, bakers chocolate and cocoa, a bit of biscuity cookie dough and a touch of roast, coffee notes, mild bitter earthy hops, mild background creamy lactose like thing but that's probably my mind filling that in. Finish drier, little bitterness, earthy hop note, more chocolate, and a little yeasty note.
Mouth is med bod, a bit creamy, decent fluffy carb
Overall not bad, chocolate overpowers almost everything else, but the base beer seems decent, and it def delivers on the chocolate promise.
