Brooklyn Brewery Black Chocolate Stout

I normally buy a case of this every December and cellar 4 bottles for comparison. This is my go-to winter brew. I find it a refreshing (and nourishing?) treat during those cruddy snow shoveling sessions. This bottle was from Winter 10-11 and was stored in a EuroCave wine 'fridge. Poured black with no head into a generic tulip glass. I could already see the familiar syrupy qualities coming through. Strong dark chocolate, burnt wheat toast, and some caramel sauce aromas emanate from the glass. Good thick heavy mouthfeel...perfect for those cold dark days.
