Next up on the dedicated stout line, here's Mokah, from Southern Tier, a blend of Jahva and Choklat, I think, and as I drink it from the tap I look at notes from 3 years ago, June, 2009, from a bottle:
Mokah, A Stout Brewed with Chocolate and Coffee. "Imperial" Mokah.
Jamaican coffee, Belgian chocolate, caramel, chocolate & black malts...11%? We're in for some fun.
Aroma is all chocolate, coffee below, hops muted....appearance, utter darkness, rich, roasted brown head....that aroma is to kill for though...so, rich, bittersweet, ...is it my birthday already?
Taste:Insane! Everything I try from these guys goes further and further. Jahva, and Oat, and Choklat...these can be pushed further and made deeper, richer, fuller and more expressive in flavor? Damn right.
Bittersweet, coffee mingled with rich cocoa flavor...liquefied chocolate frosting.
Holy macaroni, this is great stuff. Full-bodied, long, luxurious finish. Damnably delicious. Pretty amazing, never quite tasted quite this much genuine chocolate flavor in a stout. Intense, decadent, almost indecent.
Yum, mmm!
