radagast83 (1273), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Jul 10, 2007 Bottle. I’m not sure what to make of his beer. It didn’t have that strong of an aroma, and the flavor was a little weak to me. Perhaps I drank it too chilled, but I’ve had other beers that were "brewed with coffee" and this one just pales entirely compared to them. gunhaver (1024), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 6, 2007 Updated: Jun 5, 2008Doesn’t feel like a stout, but the coffee is definitely all over this beer. Not bad, but it’s also not that great compared to other stouts that are far more complex. jeffc666 (1886), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Jul 5, 2007 opaque black with a thin insipid brown head. the aroma is sweet with hints of vomit 9 not over powering thankfully). the flavor is like too sweet bad coffee. not a fan. blklab2007 (938), Connecticut, USA Jun 29, 2007 Updated: Jul 4, 2007pours dark brown almost black with a ring of head in the glass. aroma is coffee and chocolate, almost a breakfast beer. too much to drink a few but one is tasty. definately on the sweet side. hophead75 (1945), Boonton, New Jersey, USA Jun 27, 2007 12 oz bottle from Julio’s. Pours a cola like dark brown with a quickly dissipating off white head. Aroma is of coffee and chocolate. Taste is of light coffee, light notes of chocolate, not too much else. A bit thin bodied. Not that bad though, no off flavors. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 19, 2007 Bottle from State Line. Deep blackish pour with 2-finger tan head. Aroma is roasty chocolatey malt, slight nuts, figs, and chocoff. The flavor is roasty malty up front, with some chocoff notes at mid-palate, and slight figgy hops at the finish. treadyroc (112), St. Leonard, Maryland, USA Jun 18, 2007 I bought a six pack of this because I’d never seen it & figured I’d try it. Big mistake. It took me two of them to realize what I found familiar about it: it tastes like coffee-infused Yuengling. A good try, but it definitely falls short. carl4beer (394), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA Jun 8, 2007 pours dark brown with a fizzy, off-white head. aroma of coffee, malt, a bit of cocoa. not much going on here... there is a crisp zestiness, then nothing... nothing... nothing... is it ok to just smell a beer and not drink it??
