Once this recipe is fine tuned, looking to do other versions, such as: dry hopped, imperial, Jumbo (aggressively dry hopped and imperial ABV!) cherry aged (for Christmas), Candied orange peel and Amarillo dry hopped, conditioned with Polcari's Ethiopian coffee, maple syrup primed (maybe bourbon barrel aged?). Also look into different brewing methods such as cold steeping specialty malts and first wort hopping. Small amendments to consider include wheat to add body, dry hopping current late hop additions, more chocolate malt and perhaps some Cascade hops.

Notes:

Very clean hop bitterness in the taste; would leave as is. Good slick, full mouthfeel; would not change. Dry mouthfeel as well, leaves tongue coated after sip. Aroma hops need more of a presence. Taste is very bitter cocoa; chocolate component of beer should be enhanced. Overall a beer I very much enjoy and that mirrors the product I was after, but as always can be improved!
