NobleSquirrel (1100), Chicago, Illinois, USA Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours a deep brown/black. Rather sweet and somewhat acidic. Sticky and different. Not a lot of coffee, more like a coffee candy or latte. Not too bad, but nothing great. Okay. Trev (850), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA Nov 17, 2008 poured a dark brown colour with a tan head.
Creamy coffee and light fruity alc aroma.
Flavour was cappuccino coffee and light milky chocolate finish.
tourette (186), San Francisco, California, USA Nov 2, 2008 Dark and rich stout, with overwhelming coffee and cream flavors. I really did love the taste, but the mouthfeel was a little sticky and strange. Definitely something I’ll purchase again though. CelticBrew (676), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA Nov 1, 2008 Poured from bomber dark brown, nearly black, little to no foamy head. Aroma of coffee, chocolates, hops and a bit of vanilla. Flavour much of the same, rich texture, solid yet liquidly sticky. Yes, definatley a stout, however somewhat hybrid, well made beer. perfect for cold nights, sitting out back with fire and sausages. Looking down at wifes nice apple ass and knowing that its yers to tap. Perhaps not an ’’imperial’’ beer, but very well made, quite drinkable. mfaulke (81), clemson, South Carolina, USA Oct 31, 2008 This is a good coffee brew, but not nearly in the same category as the Bells, Founders, or Terrapin coffee offerings. The palate is a little thin for me, and I felt like the roast could have been a little bolder. I’m a big fan of espresso though, so I might be a little bias. spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA Oct 29, 2008 Black with red cast when held to a strong light. Aroma of cocoa and coffee. Modest tan head good amount of lacings. Tastes of strong rich coffee, some cocoa, trace of vanilla. Sweet dark roasted malts, long bitter finish. Good warming brew partly due to high abv that is well masked. Sleeper (76), Washington, USA Oct 29, 2008 Smells of malts and coffee. Looks like coffee. Tastes like a bitter coffee. I like it. The color has a tinge of lightness to it. I’d buy this again. nbutler11 (731), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Oct 27, 2008 Pours a thin black color with a hint of ruby and a faint tan head. Smells of roasted malts, coffee, and slight licorice. Tastes much the same along with a bit of powdered cocoa and maple syrup. Unevenly flavored, yet satisfyingly sweet.
