Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout

Brewed by Lagunitas Brewing Company
Style: Stout
Petaluma, California USA

Clear dark mahogany (so dark, you really need a bright light to see that it’s really red-brown) with a towering brown foamy head that stays forever. The aroma fresh ground espresso bean and milk chocolate. The palate is an all-out coffee assault, balanced by some milky chocolate, a thick creamy mouthfeel, and a stemmy woody finish. Outstanding for its drinkability, balance, and richness.

Bottle. Wauw even when you pour it the aroma seems extensitve, the looks are great and you really feel like drinking it. Bacj to buisness. Head is high and light brown creamy and long lasting leaving some nice lacings on the glass as you drink it.Body Well: my lamp is quite sharp and saying deep dark brown red. In dayliihgt: Pitch blakc. When I poured it I got a sense of perfume,High light brown and Sniffing to the beer reveals coffee and coacoa. Flavor is - surprise surpirse - dominated by american hops plus coffee. Cappuccino is in my opinion a ladies drink. The brewers of this beer might - rightfully so - claim that it is smooth and soft, but milk and ladies sipping decoffeind coffee is not what spring into my my mind with this beer. I’m sure that the hard working Polissh workers in Denmark would love it. A beer for men. Alcohol well hidden though. Long aftertaste, low cabonationg. I definately have to buy some more to store!! For orce I think that the bottle is suitable for one. Man what an expeirience.

Bottle. Deep dark brown colour. Roasty but burned coffee malty aroma. Good mouthfeel. The flavour is sweet with a good roasty maltiness, coffee, good bitterness, yeast and bit of chocolate.

A deeper chestnut brown. Great roasted and coffee flavors. Thin head of khaki color. Well balanced for a coffee stout.

Bottle @ Ølbaren. Dark brown with a smallish, sticky beige head. Aroma is mildly coffee-based and with a roasted edge to it. Nice mouthfeel, not too thick nor too light. Flavour has lots of coffee with a heavy bitterness. Nice long aftertaste. Good brew.

This was lighter on the coffee flavor than I expected, but still a very good stout. Poured dark with a nice frothy head. Hints of roasted malts and brown sugar were finished off nicely with the light flavor of cappucino. Also nice strength but not overpowering at 8.3%.

75 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a reddish hue. Aroma is mild coffee and light roasted. Flavour holds avery nice coffee heavy note to a solid bitterness. Slight herbal coffee flavour, yet smooth and nicely balanced. Nice coffee lingering finish too.

Black body with ruby red highlights. Thick dense head with a medium khaki color. Strong coffee and blueberries dominate the aroma. Some cinnamon toast is also there in the background. The taste is medium coffee with some brown sugar notes. There is also a little bit of milk chocolate in the finish. Smooth and light body for the abv.
