Apr 26, 2008 A- Pours a very dark brown, letting a small amount of light through. A small 1.5 finger light brown head fades quickly to a little layer of foam.
S- Nose starts off with a caramely sweetness leading to coffee.
T- Taste is fairly light and coffee forward with a mettalic twang at the end.
M- A bit watery, coffee and a small amount of sweetness linger in the mouth but not in a bad way.
D- This is very drinkable but for the wrong reasons. It is a bit too bland. The mouthfeel lacks thickness to support the coffee flavor.

Apr 26, 2008 Bottle sampled. Pours cola colored with a small tan head. Aroma of coffee, roasted chocolate malts, and traces all though small of hops to the nose. The flavor is coffee, roasted, dark chocolate, and finishes with some hoppy bitterness. Good brew.

Apr 19, 2008 Updated: Jan 28, 2009Has an amber-blackish color. Solid. It’s smell? Like coffee beans. Tastes like a spicy coffee... oh, is THAT what Kona is? Great idea for a beer. Straight up Kona! Tastes just like coffee beans - not coffee - coffee BEANS. A little strong in flavor at first, but wears on you nicely.Bites on the palate. Medium body. Goes down well, especially after drinking a bit.
