Tomorrow, Tuesday March 16th, you can catch a free screening of the documentary that took the beer world by storm. If you haven’t seen it or have seen it and just want to see it again with other beer lovers then head over to the Funky Buddha Lounge tomorrow around 9 pm to check it out and have some good brews.
The Funky Buddha Lounge
2621 North Federal Highway
Boca Raton, Florida 33431
Name – Terrapin Side Project The Dark Side
Country – United States
Type – Belgian Strong Dark Ale
Appearance – Poured a jet black color with a big brown head.
Smell – Nice chocolate scent with hints of coffee and vanilla.
Taste – The chocolate and vanilla flavors mix well together with a bit of a roasted malt and coffee backing to it.
I was really excited to get this one after I heard about it. My first tasting of it was on draft at the Coffee District in Delray Beach, FL and that was my staple there until the keg was kicked. I was only able to get a couple bottle in Pembroke Pines but I got them. Absolutely lovely beer. I just can’t get enough of these chocolate winter seasonals. I wish there were some of them that were year round.
Overall Grade – A
Name – Choklat
Country – United States
Type – American Imperial Stout
Appearance – Pours a completely opaque ink black with a big tan head.
Smell – Cocoa in the nose and it is glorious.
Taste – Chocolate/cocoa taste is absolutely beautiful. Ever so slight roastedness and a very small alcohol hint.
This was the one that everyone said you had to get when Southern Tier came down and I’m so glad I did. This one makes every other beer that contains the word chocolate in it look like Yoohoo. So amazingly smooth and drinkable. Perfect substitute for hot chocolate on a cold night. I can’t wait til next year for this again. It gets the holy grail of grades.
Don’t forget that I reviewed this at Dos Beerigos as well on their scale and it can be read here.
Overall Grade – A+
