Left Hand-New Belgium Beer Week Sauce

Another beer I ordered at Varga Bar in Philadelphia was the Left Hand-New Belgium collaboration Beer Week Sauce. The beer pours a black color with a frothy tan colored head that stays for a while. The aroma consists of dark Belgian chocolate, toasted malts, vanilla, and caramel. The taste is dark chocolate and rather dry with a light vanilla accent and a caramel sweetness. Coffee provides a great balance and wonderful flavor. The beer finishes a little dry and bitter, but has a wonderful overall flavor. The alcohol content is 6.0% ABV. This beer had an amazing balance of chocolate and coffee flavors with a nice vanilla and caramel sweetness.
