thill25 (216), Orlando, Florida, USA Feb 17, 2008 Bomber...Poured a deep brown w/ very little carbonation and creamy light brown head. Good lacing...Very strong coffee aroma w/ a hint of chocolate. Tasted some bitter dark chocolate, espresso, and cocoa. Moderately bitter palate w/ a lasting finish. BigMilly8 (374), Holiday, Florida, USA Feb 17, 2008 From beer : Pours dark brown, a little light passes through, with a finger of offwhite foamy head, big lacing. Pretty hoppy smell with some malt in the back. Also some coffee and expresso scents as well. A hoppy coffee taste, finishing with some coffee bean aftertaste. Medium body with a smooth feel. Braudog (3733), Dayton, Ohio, USA Feb 17, 2008 Bottle: Deep black/red color with a thick and frothy, but relatively thin top. The aroma is just like the chocolate-covered espresso beans I enjoy so much. To drink this is to kick yourself in the pants, thick with robust roasted malts, ashy milkiness, cocoa, bitter baking chocolate. This could be my new morning wakeup call and would go great with Belgian waffles. (#3326, 2/17/2008) blutt59 (2042), Dallas, Texas, USA Feb 16, 2008 22 oz. bottle, ruby black color, no head to speak of, more dried fruit than coffee on the nose, big coffee flavor that lasts, alcohol is not over the top Naven (864), Poway, California, USA Feb 15, 2008 On tap @ SD Brewing Co: So, normally, I don’t care for these Coffee stouts, but holy crap, this was tasty. Lots and lots of coffee in the nose, and as expected, the flavor is a rush of espresso. There is alot of body in this one, which is not the case in other coffee stouts like Beer Geek. Very good. KieferUGA (461), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Feb 15, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a dark brown with light brown edges. Small khaki head with a good bit of lacing. Aroma of coffee grounds. Flavor is of bittersweet chocolate, roasted malts, and coffee. Body is smooth and creamy. Finish is lightly bitter. Nice beer. beerbill (1919), Laurel, New York, USA Feb 10, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a dark clear ruby red, which is visible when held against light, with a thin light tan head that disappeared after a few sips. Pleasant aroma of coffee and malt with some light hops fruit. The flavor is again coffee and roasted malt with not too much else going on. Moderate coffee bitterness at the finish which lingers lightly beyond the swallow. The alcohol is well hidden. An ok coffee stout. Guinness4Duff (507), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA Feb 9, 2008 Pours a dark brown color with a tan head. Smells roasted, tastes of dark chocolate, lots of roasted coffee and has nice burnt finish. Very good.
