Choklat
Had this on 2011-01-14 at Al's of Hampden in Enola, PA A - Extremely dark brown with just a little light creeping through at the top edge of the glass. Short tan head with little lacing. S - One dimensional smell of chocolate but my, oh my, what an abundance of it. T - A great big wollop of both dark and very sweet milk chocolate. There a bit of hop presence but the aftertaste morphs from very sweet to an astingent coffee biterness with lingering sweetness. This helps disguise the still-apparent high ABV of this tasty brew. I like this but it's almost over the top for syrupy, chocolate flavor. M - Mouthfeel is heavy with light-medium carbonation. Very thick and creamy. D - A very fine beer that isn't sessionable for me. One glass is enough since it is so striking in its flavor. I tried mixing it 1/2 and 1/2 with a Hacker Pschorr Hefe and I liked the result a little better. It's as if cutting it allowed more of the nuances of the Choklat to shine through.
