Nose

Drinking chocolate and creamy truffles.

Palate

Ultra-smooth, with luscious, rich chocolate well to the fore and a truffle-like creaminess. Some bitter coffee for contrast.

Finish

Hops on the swallow instantly build in the finish to compete with indulgent chocolate flavours, making it nicely bitter as a result. Nutty and thankfully not cloying.

Comment

A beer for chocoholics, containing natural chocolate flavouring, but still very much a beer.
