Nov 4, 2009 Bottle from allendodd. Thanks for this and all the others! Pours a ruddy copper with a three-finger beige head. It laced a bit. Aroma is coffee. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is mostly coffee. There’s some dark malt underneath. Lager? Ok. But it can stand up against a lot of porters and stouts. Damn tasty ale, er lager!!!

Pours copper, beige head.
Aroma of coffee, grainy, malty.
Flavor, light cofee with hints of grains, nutty palate. Nice torrefied coffee mouthfeel with a borderline chocolate presence followed by some faint bitterness. Tasty! Light in body with plenty of coffee.

Oct 5, 2009 12 oz bottle from Capones. Hmmm....very interesting in a good way. I read "Beer Made With 100% Fair Trade Coffee" and immediately thought STOUT, well I was WRONG. This one pours a deep reddish/mahogany brown with an average sized light beige head. Aroma was all fresh brewed coffee with just a slight malt based backbone. Medium to full body with a good dose of carbonation and a slightly creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is pretty much an iced coffee with some slight malts. This was one interesting beer and the funny thing is I don’t even like coffee but I love me some coffee beers. Whoever thought that loving beer would make me turn into a coffee drinker??

Oct 2, 2009 Lovely lovely nose of coffee and mild hops. Nice deep brown color. I was shocked to find out this was a lager since the malt/hop balance was so well done. The flavor is of coffee and top quality brown ale even though its a lager.

Sep 28, 2009 Courtesy of kiefdog. Pours clear copper with thin off white head. The aroma is a mix of smooth coffee, earthiness, a dash of cherry and maybe some oak. The taste is much the same with sweet malts, caramel malts, coffee and more sweetness from here and there. It oddly ends a bit dry.

Sep 19, 2009 Thanks to the Tampa Tasting Group for bringing this one. Pours caramel brown with a white head. Nose is malt, coffee, caramel, and a bit of lageriness. Flavor is similar with hints of coffee blending through. Not bad, but not my first choice.
