COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Chocolate Espresso Stout
This rich, creamy stout combines three of our favorite things; espresso, beer and chocolate! Boneyard and Backporch Coffee Roasters have collided to create a very flavorful and aromatic ale, using a cold extraction method. Breakfast or dinner....it’s up to you!! Just don’t let your boss sniff yer coffee cup!!

Draft at 16 Tons Taphouse. Pours very dark, moderate amount of tan head. Aroma is rich, lots of chocolate and coffee. Sweetness is the overall effect. Body is very lively, roasty and medium. Finish is subtly sweet, but short, some biscuity notes as well. Love it, a very drinkable coffee stout.

Imperial pint at fstop fitzgeralds in Salem $4.00 Served in aroom temp mug. Black ale small light tan head goes fast leaving lace. Nice toasty burnt dark malts in aroma. Taste is much the same maybe with some liqurice simple but good Good mouthfeel,goes down nice. All in all a nice easy drinking stout.

Growler @ Frank’s (Ramnuts) tasting, thanks to Mini & Bird - 06/11/12. Light black with a thin tan head. Nose comprises coffee, espresso tones, chocolate and molasses. Tastes of espresso, coffee beans, chocolate, roast malts. Medium bodied with light carbonation, a little too much going on for my liking but not enough to spoil a good stout. and a roasty finish. Decent stuff.

Dark sasparilla body with ultra pillowy ovaltine colored head. Chocolatey, musty malt aroma interrupted by some old shoe. The flavor actually transcends the inconsistencies of the aroma by offering up a full chocolate ovaltine and malt flavor that would pair well with poutine and cheese.

crackedmachine (412) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JAN 29, 2012
On tap. Nearly black, with a slight tan head that was gone by the first sip. Somewhat oily and slick, but medium-bodied and very drinkable. Flavor of coffee, roasted malt, cereal, and a hint of bittersweet chocolate. Delicious.

boFNjackson (3580) - Portland, Oregon, USA - NOV 7, 2011
Tap @ Boneyard... Poured dark brown with a thin, off-white head. Some big cocoa tones here and hints of pressed coffee. Roasted malts made a presence with a nice mild palate and suitable body for the drying finish.

AmEricanbrew (4868) - Belcher, Louisiana, USA - NOV 4, 2011
Clear dark brown color/ tan sheen. Dark roast malt, mocha coffee aromas. Light to medium bodied. Sugared and creamed up coffee flavors with mild chocolate, smooth easy finish with no bite--too smooth and slick---decent
