Ommegang - Seduction

A BELGIAN LOVE AFFAIR Ommegang Seduction is lovingly brewed with six dark malts. Chocolatier Callebut provides the chocolate, while Liefmans brings the cherries. This international romance is consummated with a full body, alluring aromas and flavors of Belgian chocolate, and tart cherries. Seduction is an ale to be lovingly embraced. Beautiful, rich and smooth, roasty and malty throughout, Seduction offers balanced chocolate-cherry notes, a bit of caramel sweetness, and a long, slow finish. Seduction is welcoming and warm-hearten, gently hopped and harbors no bitterness, leaving only a lingering glow.

Drinkable - Not the best chocolate stout but a good brew for a brewery that specializes in Belgium beer.  You can taste the Belgium yeast.  The tartness is buried in the cocoa, not balanced.  I'll need to try another bottle in the future.
