Commercial Description:
If you love really good coffee and really good beer equally, you will be thrilled with Péché Mortel. If coffee isn’t your cup of tea, and caffeine makes you bounce off the ceiling, then just put the bottle down and find something else to drink. This beer is all about coffee. Indeed, you may have seen ‘coffee stouts’ before, but no brewer has ever married coffee and beer so naturally and seamlessly.
And this isn’t just any stout, but an imperial stout, which means that it is modeled on the strong, rich, and very complex stouts that were made in England in the 19th and early 20th centuries exclusively for shipment to Russia, where they were a special favorite at the court of the Czars.

Bottle, first run. Near opaque black hue with dark brown edges. Thick, creamy/frothy, brown head with some large bubbles. Roast espresso, dark unsweet chocolate, caramel. Even as this warms I could entice few more aromas to appear. Heavily sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter flavor. Moderately sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter finish. There’s a heavy grape flavor that I’m not too fond of. Medium-full bodied, oily texture, lively carbonation. Nice, dry chocolate aftertaste is really the best thing going on here.

Bottled: a simply delicious imperial stout! Pours a dark color with a big tan head. Smells of roasted coffee beans and tastes of sweetly roasted malts and coffee, that lasts on the palate. A great beer!

Bottle, pours a black beer with a huge tan creamy head. Aroma is pure coffee, roast and chocolate. Flavor is a clean taste of coffee and sweet malt with complex notes of roast and a great smoothness. This is a very nice suprise from TikiE. Very simalar to the Wake & Bake, maybe better

Think stong chocolate coffee aroma. Pours think with a nice head. Very stong coffee nose. Not a session beer. Great desert beer. Great match with chocolate.

A beautiful pour, it is black, thick, and substantial with a two toned head of tan and brown. Two fingers in size. Aroma is iced coffee with roasted notes, whiskey, and dark fruit. Flavor is delicious and complex. Strong coffee, dark chocolate, alcohol, raisins. Feel is smooth and powdery. Flavors welded together beautifully as temp rose. This beer is incredibly well crafted and is absolutely delicious. A world class effort.

Bottle. Black color with a lasting brown head. Aroma: Roastiness, espresso, a bit of sweetness and caramel. Flavor: Roastiness/bitterness, lots of coffee/espresso, some chocolate as well. The alcohol is mostly hidden. Creamy and dry mouthfeel. Very nice if you are a stout and coffee fan, but maybe a bit one-dimensional
