This beer pours pitch black and has a nice tan head. Roasty coffee and dark chocolate aroma. The taste is very bitter and leaves an aftertaste of coffee, much stronger flavor than expected. Finishes slowly, astringent feeling, but smooth.

BierFiend (102) - Theisberstegen, GERMANY - JUN 3, 2013
Pours dark brown with one finger of tan foamy head. Smells of caramel, toffee, coffee, and roasted malts. Tastes of chocolate, coffee, bitter, and malted milk balls. Short flavor.

Som en erfaren felfinnare kan jag väl börja med att sticka in en akupunkturnål i akilleshållen: Lagunitas Cappuccino är något av en jätte på lerfötter. Överallt putar smaker ut, buktar och bågnar, och påminner närmast om ett stresstest av ens omdöme. Å andra sidan kan man ju justera det genom att ta mindre klunkar. För annat än småaktiga petitisser kan jag inte utläsa av mina anteckningar. Det här är ett öl som förtjänar bättre än mitt raljerande sludder, så kom ihåg att glömma allt det här och gå bums vidare till nästa recension.

Överraskande bra. Kraftig i aroma och smaken. Alkoholhalten göms väldig bra i denna välbalanserade skapelsen. Likey

Bottle. Almost black colour. Roasted, malty, lots of coffee in both aroma and flavor., chocolate, vanilla, a bit of ashes, rather sweet, but with a bitter finish. I liked it.

tkrjukoff (3393) - SWEDEN - MAY 17, 2013
Bomber 2009 vintage shared with Lotta. Pours black brown with a great creamy beige tanned lacing head. Aroma is intensly coffee chocolate some hints of vanilla roasted malts ashy dry. Flavor is coffee coffe dry ashy yet some underlying sweetness, chocolate from middle together with the strong coffee a bit acidy spocy peppery and pleasantly bitter; very drinkable but still perfect after dinner. Good bitter coffee chocolate finish.

22 oz bottle. Mouthfeel- Full bodied, creamy, and smooth. Low amount of carbonation. Appearance: Black with a decent cream colored head. Leaves pretty good lace. Very, very nice. Starbucks ought to be serving this. 9.26% ABV? Don’t have one of these for breakfast!

I had high expectations for this one. This bottle had about a year of age on it. Aroma was of roasted malt and chocolate. Appearance was pitch black. Flavor was roasted malt, highlighted with booziness. Mouthfeel was slick. This one didn’t really live up to expectations, perhaps it isn’t a beer that suits itself to aging.
