TURDFERGUSON (1594), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Nov 2, 2008 Bottle from Sam’s. Pours black with a small tan head. Strong coffee, dark fruits, cocoa, and char throughout. Velvety mouth feel with a nice warm and roasty finish. A very tasty beer overall that I will definitely have again. jonno (542), Brisbane, Australia Nov 2, 2008 Updated: Nov 28, 2008A good solid strong stout, alyhough it has minimal coffee nose or flavour. It does come out more as it warms up however. Rciesla (3510), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Nov 1, 2008 Bottle. This beer smells awesome. Loads of coffee accents of vanilla, some coco, and chocolate. Never gets sweet just overpowered by the coffee bitterness and hints of vanilla. A must try a treat. ILoveNewBeer (113), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Oct 30, 2008 I have a very bright LED light and I shined it on the other side of the glass. . . couldn’t even see a hint of light. No joke.
Caramel, chocolate, hint of mint and strong coffee flavor (I don’t like coffee yet I like this beer). One of if not the best Coffee beers that I have ever had.
More than full bodied, perfect dark, and delicious.
Buy me. beerinmarch (2781), Alabama, USA Oct 28, 2008 Bright and powerful espresso edge, pretty acidic and sharp. Soft earthy character to it, almost like charred chocolate and oak in the finish. I enjoyed this beer after the initial overwhelming espresso sharpness dulled my palate. Its a nice stout, just with a massive coffee edge. ARMed (485), Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 27, 2008 Creamy stout with a powerful chocolate flavor. The palate has a slight smokiness which has a alcohol overtone. This stout is deep and thick with a viscous body. There is a deep dark borwn head with a moderate lacing. MrChopin (621), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 27, 2008 Dark brown with large tan head, long lasting despite receding and leaving lacing all over the glace. Nose reminds of Founders, vegetal bean deluxe, some tobacco and smoke, and yet there’s also this odd raisin/burnt sugar scent. Flavor carries more tobacco and coffee, and probably vanilla. As it warms, vanilla and chocolate are well-incorporated, so it’s never singular and over-bitter. Moderate sized body, rather creamy. It doesn’t go as far overboard with the coffee and thus allows room for other stuff, and so I think I prefer it to Mikkeller’s and Founder’s. Still, coffee stouts aren’t really my thing. steview (901), Los Angeles, California, USA Oct 23, 2008 sweet coffee aroma; that motor oil pour, thick and sparkling brown head, moderate lacing; dark fruits, coffee, roasted chocolate, sugar; pretty tasty, but it ends somewhat bitter and fruity like fruit that sat out for an extra day, and served with some old coffee... meh.
