Well, fermented for 6 days then bottled and left for a while. Original gravity turned out a little lower than expected but still turned out great. When we finally cracked them they were D.E.licious. A little heavy on the coffee, roasted flavor for my particular taste but the vast majority of the people who have tried it, loved it. if you're looking for more chocolate you may be dissapointed, but excelent sweet stout. I'm considering adding raw chocolate to the next batch.
