Highland Black Mocha Stout

Perfectly ebon with a large foamy cap of deep yellowed brown spongeyness. Keeps a huge skim/capping present for great length and lacing is spread out in lots of spots and a few stringy thingies. Good aroma of soft cocoa covered bread, brown sugar, and mocha coffee ice cream with a bit of dry nuttyness on top. Flavors are a bit nicer and quite fufilling in tone and richness. Good amounts of chocolate malt, some nice evenly set drying to it as it soothes into a semi creamy coffeeness and roastability. Tiny burnt notes flick about along with some dry husks and cocoa. A very easy going character of evenness and smoothness. Good balance of chocolatey sweetness mixed with coffee dryness and slight bitterings of burntness. Feel is soft and creamy with a nice delicate dryness throughout. Body dances well in the medium areas, kinda gets more tang as it warms with a bit of oatyness. Very soothing and nearly silky in some ways. This one grew on me, at first it didn’t seem like it was gonna knock my socks off but as it went along it became a very inticingly fun brew to drink. I think the overall subtle tones in flavor and body really worked well together and made for a very approachable drinker of a stout!

Dark black. Coffee, chocolate and malt. Pretty tasty. A little too much fiz though.

Thanks to ucusty! Pour is dark black and has a decent brownish head. Aroma is nice...mocha and dark, roasted chocolate with a touch of toffee. Flavor is very tasty, but a tad weak. Medium, fizzy mouthfeel. Nice and slightly bitter finish.

bottle,pours black,off white head,med carb,roasty malty coffe nose,chocolate,malty raosty coffe taste,good beer.

trade thanks. Poured a dark brown with ruby tint, fizzy foamy tan head. Nose was typical stout, with a somewhat off scent as well. Thin mouth feel with a touch of cola on the finish? Not bad, not great.

Bomber. Pitch black stout with a small light tan head. Smells of roasted barley, hints of chocolate and coffee. A classic, no-bull stout that’s very drinkable. It goes down smooth and leaves a warm feeling in the mouth. This could make a wonderful session stout and one I should keep around all the time.

This beer hits you with a lot of flavor up front, and the finish is a little metallic as others have noted. It’s a good brew, but I prefer their outmeal porter.

Mild coffee aroma with a hint of cream within. Flavor is a smooth caramel with a roasted coffee finish. Just a little bit too dry, otherwise perfect.
