Look: Midnight black body with a small dark brown head.
Taste: Initially smells of chocolate and tastes like it as well. Then the smoke flavors of a stout come through and your left with a bitter barley aftertaste.
Conclusion: I was referred to this brew by a friend and was told it was like drinking a chocolate pie. I'd have to say it's like a chocolate bunny drank a stout and had the runs. Not saying it tastes like sh!t because, remember, chocolate bunny turds are still chocolate. I digress. All in all this is a nice tasting stout and has overwhelming chocolate flavors with the occasional hint of a malty stout. It's not very sweet at all and still has a nice stout kick to it. I'm one of the few that isn't a fan of chocolate in general but I'm sure most people will enjoy this one.
I imagine this couldn't really couldn't go with any foods, save maybe desserts. Have a go if you like chocolate. A great chocolate stout but too bad I don't like chocolate. Maybe if Young's made a Twinkie flavored stout. Ya I'd be all over that.
5 Brews!

This beer is deserving of more than a 5 out of 10. I had this out of a tap in a bar, and it had a very strong chocolate taste to it. I agree with your assumption that it would not go with any foods, but it is a great desert beer. Much like wines, there are beers that go with foods and some enjoyed after foods. This happens to be a desert beer, and a good one. A far cry from chocolate bunny excriment! Well, I'd imagine so...
This happens to be my newest favorite beer!
I dig the dark taste. It goes good with a great sandwich!
