650ml bottle - once again, a limited edition offering, where they tell you nothing about the liquid inside, other than that gleaned from the name.
This beer pours a clear, very dark brown colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly beige head, which leaves some decent spindly snow rime lace around the glass as it quickly dissipates.
It smells of roasted and bready caramel malt, bittersweet cocoa powder, mild cafe-au-lait, muddled black stone fruit, a hint of anise spice, and some plain earthy, leafy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, a bit of free-range ashiness, medium chocolate, fancy schmancy coffee, still hard to differentiate fruity notes, and more understated earthy, musty, and floral green hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its basically supportive frothiness, the body a solid medium weight, and generally smooth, with just a touch of char exacting a minor tithe here. It finishes off-dry, the roasted malt and cocoa essences predominating.
Overall - this is a pleasant enough version of the new world style, with dry mocha the most notable 'adjunct' flavour. Tasty, and easy to put back, and I don't believe that they've taken any sort of license here, moral or otherwise.
