Dieu du Ciel Péché Mortel

Pours a near black with a dark tan head. Nose is dark roast espresso. Rich and strong aroma, quite amazing really. Some subtle notes of chocolate and smoke. Moderate bitterness up front with some strong roast. Like drinking a cup of fine cuban espresso. Huge chewy body with a long slight bitter and roasty mocha finish. Fantastic.

Wow, almost like drinking carbonated coffee/ The amorma is like waking up to a fresh pot with hint of chocolate. Pours rick and dark with a small cream colored head. taste is coffee coffee with a bitter hoppy after taste.

A smooth smokey beer with a clean finish. Nicedark color and head. Obviouis coffee notes. It was great on tap at the brewpub.

This beer came highly recommended, and it is always a pleasure to try a beer as highly rated as this one. RIS is a very popular style these days, and there are certainly many of them - this one, as advertised had a very heavy dose of coffee. It was a nice blend of sweetness and dry roastiness ("burned pizza crust"). Color was black. Body was viscous. Head was non-existent. Aroma was coffee-ish; dry, roast-y, and pretty bitter. Flavor was the same, but the dry-roastiness was balanced with some milk-stout sweetness. Mouthfeel was very slick, and pretty thick. Quite solid. Highly recommended. I bought this bottle at Blacklick Liquor on Broad St. Probably not worth the $5.89 for a 12oz bottle I paid, but quite good nonetheless.

Bottle. Wow. Pours a thick, viscous, oily black, with a presistent and lacy dark tan head. Big cappuccino aroma, with roasted barley, chocolate, fruit, great! Palate was both intense yet surprisngly drinkable. Huge coffee throughout, with more complexity than I would expect from even the best cup of coffee. Just floored me.

Pours like two stroke oil, coating the glass. Dark tan head forms, starchy nose. The coffee shows up on the palate, creamy middle, bitter hops finish. This really was easy to drink, all things in balance.

11.5oz bottle from CBX. pours a lovely, slightly thick onyx, with a thin, dark cocoa head and a ring of lace. aroma is absolutely wonderful with huge roast coffee and espresso notes, dark chocolate, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and the slightest hint of vinous red fruits. flavor is truly spectacular with huge, bitter, dark roasted coffee and german chocolate cake up front, backed by notes of roasted pistachio, plantains, brown sugar and cinnamon oatmeal, vanilla beans, and a touch of smoked wood leaving a long, bittersweet, roasted coffee finish. palate smooth and full bodied with medium carbonation. overall, one of the best damn coffee stouts out there.
