Pours almost black with no head and a little lacing. Aroma and taste much the same. Strong coffee grinds and peach...a very interesting combo of flavors.

Coffee, chocolate, and subtle tobacco notes. Smooth drinking, but robust. The coffee aroma is quite strong, but other flavors are also well developed. It’s quite delicious.

OK... its official a tie for best beer I’ve ever had. Why such a high rating? Do I love coffee? No... but I love the smell of coffee... this has so much aroma... perfect dark appearance with nice medium head. The taste is coffee but milky creamy coffee... every drink I couldn’t believe what I was having... Amazing! Calmon the palate mild hops perfect balance. There is so much going on with this Beer. This would be perfect for a beer float! Great job guys!

Smells like strong black coffee. Looks like strongly black coffee. Tastes like strong black coffee with a little beer mixed in. Background flavors include chocolate malt and some faint buffering by the hops. Coffee drinkers rejoice! You’ve found your beer. It also has a small ring of a tan head and draws down clean.
