The aroma of intense chocolate suggests a hot fudge sundae or a pan of freshly baked brownies. A malty edge provides an overall candylike impression. Some aspects of dried fruit are also present: raisin, fig, and cherry. The flavor is also rich in chocolate character, along with suggestions of toffee and vanilla. The balance is sweet, but stops short of cloying with a kiss of hops and a light roast malt presence. This is truly a dessert beverage, with rich and silky chocolate dominating the aroma and flavor. Not as intensely roasted as some examples, but would be interesting poured over a bowl of vanilla ice cream.
