Nov 16, 2007 ’07 bottle labeled 8.3%abv. Pours fairly dark brown with a moderate tan head. Aromas of fresh ground coffee, lactic sugars, a nice woody undertone, and perfumed accents (probably the hops). Lots of black coffee and dark chocolate up front, followed by some creamy lactic notes and very subtle bitterness, but overall a bit light. Palate is medium/full, slightly sharp carbonation, and a bit oily/sticky, with a fairly long finish. Killer for the price, but a bit light in flavor for my expectations.

Nov 14, 2007 A very delicious beer. Don’t be scared off by the "cappuccino" name, it tastes like coffee but only for the first sip or two. Otherwise, it’s a pretty mild coffee flavor. Smells malty and coffe-ish, and is reminiscent of a porter. Very good, very good!

Nov 13, 2007 My bottle says 8.3 ABV doesn’t smell like 8.3% abv! Smooth coffee flavor, roasted malts, dark malts, licorrice, molasses and caramely! Very smooth coffee stout.

Nov 11, 2007 22 oz. bottle. Pours black with a medium sized tan head. The aroma is roasted malts, some coffee, and light chocolate with a hint of hops. The Flavor has coffee and roasted malts. Nothing that really stands out, just decent. Maybe a little thin for my tastes.

Oct 15, 2007 22oz Bottle: Pours a dark brown with a fine tan head. The nose is subtle but driven by chocolate tones. Chocolate drives the taste but the finish is slightly bitter with a hint of dark coffee or espresso. The palate is thinner than I would expect but also soft and velvety. Overall a nice beer that hides the alcohol well and makes for a nice desert beer.

Oct 10, 2007 Fluffy fizzy beige head, dissipating to a dusting; dark black ruby in the glass. Produces a dense, clingy lace. Smells burnt and roasty at first, then like wet coffee grounds. Fizzy prickle fills the mouth on the first sip. Roasty flavors encompass some dry chocolate lurking underneath; there’s lots of flavor on the somewhat thinish body.
