New Belgium 1554 Enlightened Black Ale/Lager 4.0/5

A nice chocolate nose w a hint of the bitter to follow. Good Choc hit up front w a long burn thru the middle and a nice chocolaty finish w just a hint of the bitter.
This is a nice solid brew but not the Chocolate Chick beer your old lady might enjoy. Much more beer than hot cocoa and it appreciates all the better for it.
With the ABV running 6.0 the IBUs at 21 and a solid 20+ for the SRM this is an orderable beer but I couldn't knock too many of these back, too sweet and rich. Better suited for a couple by the fire outback than for regular pounding.
Thanks for coming by,
