4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Pours black with a brown head and strong aroma of coffee beans. A lot of flavor in this brew, heavy on coffee, mocha, and chocolate while sweet with a slightly bitter finish. Loads of coffee flavor in this brew, very nice.

Pours dark black with a nice coffee colored head. Aroma smells like a double shot of espresso. Taste is nothing but flavor. Strong coffee and chocolate flavors. Finish is sweet and lastings. If you do not like " joe " stay away otherwise do not miss this stout. Quaff Score ( drinkability with hearty enjoyment ) 8 / 10

This roasty beast pours black with a nice head. Rich aromas of whole roasted coffee beans and a little chocolate malt greet the nose. Medium body smooth roasty malt tastes like dark chocolate and finishes with a lovely lingering of fresh coffee. This is one of the best coffee stouts I’ve had.

TAP. Coffee, chocolate, and banana on the nose. It tastes like good, strong, black coffee.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
pours a viscous black. Smells like coffee beans. A bit of a roasty tone with a medi thick body. Lots of coffee all the way. Almost an espresso after taste. Great brew.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
From a bottle poured a dark brown color with a fair amount of head. Strong toasted malty flavor with a lingering aftertaste.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
12oz bottle, bottled 9/22/11. Pitch black color, thin medium-brown head that fades to minimal. Super-awesome coffee aroma. I love it. I had this and the Troegs Javahead back-to-back last night, and I definitely prefer this (albeit by a small margin). They’re both totally different animals, however, and both great brews. Taylor tasted it, and she described it as a "punch in the face" (she preferred the Javahead). Yeah, it’s a punch in the face, but that’s what I want from a java stout. This delivers, call me enchanted. Taste is nice and roasty, light bitter. Body really stands out from the Javahead, this is much heavier and thicker with a less pronounced light and crisp carbonation, definitely very big and chewy. A great brew.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Wow. Nutty coffee combined with Bell’s delicious stout, this beer will awaken all your senses.
