Commercial Description:
This unique stout combines the flavor of roasted malts and Milwaukee's reknown FUEL CAFE coffee. The fine balance of mild hops, the gentle acidity of choice cofee and the sweetness of the barley makes this an unforgettable brew.

Bottle courtesy of bleeng. Hazy brownish color. Roasted coffee scent. Smells gorgeous like the end of a church sermon. Taste has bitter flavors with coffee that finishes decently. Not bad but lacks some finishing quality.

Bottle. Poured a jet black with a one finger creamy tan head. Aroma was weaker malts and roasted malts. Flavor was coffee and caramel. Very rich and roasted flavor. Medium bodied beer. Decent.

~ Purchased this 12 oz bottle from New Beer Distributors in Manhattan, NY. Pours black with a healthy tan head that diminishes quickly. The aroma I get out of this is chocolate, followed by hints of coffee and roasted malts. Taste is slightly sourish, and I didn’t really pick out any of the coffee. For a stout, the body is a little on the thin side. Overall, this is an interesting beer (interesting in a weird sort of way). Thank God for the Mix-a-Six! ~

Exactly. This is coffee beer. Or beer flavored coffee. Lots of sweet coffee and roast. A little dry with and odd finish. Lots of coffee. Not my fav and I like coffee stouts.

bottle poured black and thin tan head aromas of roasted malts,hops and very light faint coffee taste like an average stout with the coffee being hardly present at all if your going to call your beer a coffee stout put some damn coffee in it overall this is just a stout with normal stout qualities

12oz bottle via HAgen. pours almost black with ruby edges and a small beige head. Nose is roasted grains, hazelnut,coffee. Taste is the same with a bit of soy and chocolate. Body is light, carbonation is too high. I love coffee but this is sort of like drinking cheap carbonated coffee mixed with beer..lol..which i guess is what is is!

Aggressive pour into my Duvel glass filled the vessel with a strong buoyant creamy dark tan head over jet black. Slick oily aroma of fresh bulk dark roast beans. Starts with an expected heaviness on the palate, but it fades away and becomes thinner with each sip. Coffee character is strong on the back of the tongue with notes of hazelnut and almond. Surprised to see how differently I find this beer compared to the ratings below me.
