Most of this recipe is good, but for the love of everything, do not use the whole hazelnut bottle. If I made this again, I'd use 1/4 of what's provided, MAYBE half, if I really wanted it to dominate the pallet.This beer is pretty good poured over ice cream, but it's nigh undrinkable when made per the recipe, which is a shame because everything else about it is excellent.

Although my batch came out less than perfect, the flaws were all mine. What was great with this beer was all Jamil. This is an excellent recipe for an excellent beer.

Love this beer, can't keep it around long enough as myself and friends drink this up. Just be careful with how much hazelnut you add, you don't need/want much.

Definitely didn't like the hazelnut taste. After I added the hazelnut to the beer it was way too sweet. Maybe only add a touch. was Great kit aside from that.

If I could do it again I would either not add any hazelnut or just a splash instead of all. Terrible if you add all of it. Bummer.

Brewed this up and the hazelnut flavor comes racing in and tastes a little too fake. The beer aged and it was definitely better. I would try this again, but might use less of the hazelnut extract, or might try mellowing it with oak chips. Wow it is late... but I was thinking about soaking oak chips in a cup of Maker's Mark for a day and adding that to secondary fermentation. Chocolate Hazelnut Whiskey Barrel Porter. Well maybe that is too much? Then again... maybe not.

This has been one of my most popular brews to date. It appeals to both my beer obsessed friends as well as the others not usually inclined to partake. I think next time I would reduce the amount of hazelnut extract used because it was quite strong. It did mellow a bit after a couple months but I still think less would be better.

This is one of my biggest hits with friends/family, even with those that don't really like the dark beer, it just tastes so good. It's hard to keep it around. Definitely recommend!

I brewed this a while ago. I usually keg but I felt bottle conditioning would be better for this recipe. I would suggest not using the whole bottle of hazelnut extract, but maybe it will mellow with age. This was my first time ordering from more beer but I definetly will order again.

I wanted to try something a little different and not typical. The chocolate and hazelnut are subtle and not overpowering at all. To date, this has been my all-time best brew that I've made. Even my wife likes it and she doesn't really like beer. I highly recommend and will be buying more again.
