A complex combination of chocolate aromas – ranging from coffee, roasted, bittersweet and dry cocoa. The chocolate comes through in the flavor as well, along with some deep caramel, a little bready malt and a faint hint of licorice in the finish. Features a medium-full body, moderate carbonation, and finishes smooth and creamy. This is a nice, dry, chocolate dessert beer, but it lacks some of the malt complexity and oomph you would expect from a bock.
