Lakefront Fuel Cafe

Brown with a thin beige head. Aroma of coffee, roasted malts. Taste roasted malts, coffee with some mild sweetness on the back end that finishes a little nutty. Thin and watery with a weak coffee flavor. After having snake chaser, I was excited for this, kind of a letdown. Not enough coffee in there.

Pours black with a dark-brown foam. Offers a light smell of coffee and roasted malts. I found it to be lacking this full coffee smell and flavour. Remidned me too much of the watered down coffee you get at yr local gas station. The beer remains very drinkable and enjoyable, but I was disappointed by the lack of punch it offered for a coffee stout. Not a bad attempt, but nothing that could compare to other offerings. Terrapin, Dieu du Ciel, Bell’s and Founders come to mind.

Poured a deep, thick black colour with plenty of carbonation. Head was huge and brownish. Aromas were strong of coffee (der), toffee, almonds and roasted malts. A little bit of chocolate on the nose, but taste was rich and creamy with plenty of strong black coffee flavor.

12 oz bottle pours black with a thin beige head that quickly dissapates. Aroma of coffee and roasted malts. Coffee, roasted malt, and a little bitterness.

I found this to be unpleasant and barely drinkable. It’s black with a huge light brown head that slowly shrinks to a thin ring. The aroma is wine, prunes, steak sauce, and a hint of onion. The taste is sweet, winey steak sauce and prunes, with vinegar. It is tart, a little sour. In the end there is some dark toast quality. It is oily in feel but thin and watery in body, which may seem odd.

12oz bottle pours near black with mocha head. The aroma is coffee beans, roasted malts and mild notes of burnt malts and oxidation. The taste is very much the same as the aroma with highly roasted malts mingling with coffee and with a faint note of oxidation. The coffee fades some to midway allowing more roasty malts to shine through. Coffee and burnt malts linger into the after taste. The flavors here don’t seem to play well together. It didn’t really work for me.

Bottle. Pours a deep dark brown with a bit of a head. Aroma was as it should have been, coffee, coffee, and more coffee. Taste was coffee, coffee, and more coffee. Oh and some roasted coffee. Just a bit too thin on the palate for such a coffee oriented beer.

12oz. brown bottle served in a shaker pint. Appeared to be bottle conditioned. Poured a deep brown/black with a quickly dissipating tan head. Roasted barley and coffee in the aroma. Some sweetness lots of coffee and chocolate in the flavor. A little thin on the body. Some hop bitterness in the middle. Long dry finish with more coffee and chocolate. Fairly easy drinking.
