The Beer Advent Calendar 2012 - December 9th

The last thing I wanted to be sat with tonight was a selection of strong Belgian beers.  The second-last thing I wanted to be sat with was bloody strong dark beers and stouts!

Tiny Rebel - Chocoholic
Can you guess what it tastes like? This one drops in at 6.8%.



Looks - Dark as the demonic bowels of Beelzebub.
Smells - Quite fresh for a beer this rich, not as much chocolate as you'd expect. Someone bought me a chocolate imperial stout yesterday and this is really nothing in comparison.
Taste - Less chocolately than you'd expect.  Don't get me wrong though it's still a nice beer, rich chocolate/coffee tastes.  It's like chocolate on something else - it's not primary.  Littly hoppy to finish but the lingering taste is mostly typical stout flavours.

7/10

I wrote this blog whilst listening to David Bowie (still), the song Life on Mars is one of my favourite songs ever - if you listen at around 3:40 you can hear a phone ringing in the background - not unlike The Ocean by Led Zeppelin (1:37). It seems songs I fucking love have telephones ringing in them.
