Served in a snifter
This beer pours black and is topped with less than an inch of mocha head that leaves no lacing.
The smell is rich with coffee, cocoa, and dark chocolate.
The taste is coffee up front and in the finish. I get some milk chocolate and cocoa. It is sweet up front, but the coffee adds some bitterness on the back end to add a little black coffee bitterness.
Full bodied with a creamy, sticky mouthfeel
This is a very enjoyable beer. I love the big flavors and aromas.

Pours a black color with a small tan head that disappears quickly. Aroma is roasted malts and chocolate. Tastes of strong coffee,, chocolate and alcohol. Very smooth with a hoppy bite at the finish.
