Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout

It has a beige head and a black body. Strong espresso smell along with the roasted malts aroma. Tastes like a ton of dark espresso beans thrown into coffee. Lots of roasted malts. Alcohol is really well covered up. Not too thick.

Such a smooth beer. Obviously a lot of coffee and mocha throughout, but also some chocolate notes, roasted malt. Thicker, chocolate milk mouthfeel.

dry for a stout and the hop selection plays well with the coffee flavor. They say a good shot of espresso tastes like fresh coffee smells, that is how this tastes. Very nice.

Thick, impenetrable, inky black, slim cocoa-toned head... bittersweet nose, tons of coffee tones, little sweetness, earthy, roasty.... Tasting it...mmm, there it all is, in the nutshell, rich, roasty, coffee and chocolate. Smooth, and full of flavor. Great texture, lots of play on the palate. My notes on this were minimal, but my pleasure in the drinking was not. Very nice coffee stout. I’ll return to this one again!

Bomber with some age on it. Pours a thin black brown with little to no head. Roast malts and coffee on the nose. In flavor, coffee, a tad sweet. A drying astringency in the finish. Slightly chalky and thin mouthfeel. I like both coffee and coffee brews, but this didn’t do much for me.

Bomber, listed as 7.99% ABV, at least a year old. Poured deeper brown and it took some agitatin’ effort to bring out the tan head. The aroma picked up a lovely blast of coffee sweetened up by lactose, vanilla, and caramel.. quite succulent indeed. The flavor had sweet chocolate, oatmeal, and plenty of moderately-roasted, sweeter coffee.. some chocolate cake came through toward the back.. very tasty! A hair heavier than medium-bodied on the palate with fluffy carbonation and moderate coffee bitterness (moreso as it warmed up).. well balanced and very good!

Pours a dark chocolate brown with thick brown head that dissipates. Aroma is a rich chocolate with notes of espresso hidden. Flavor is of coffee and malts a bit milky as well. Not as much chocolate in the flavor as in the aroma. Body is medium but not as thick as expected with light carbonation.
