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. Blackish beer with a brown head. Coffee, roast aroma. Coffee, roasty flavor with a bit of hop bitterness. Coffee and roast lingers. Medium body. Straight forward and to the point.

bag (105) - Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 11, 2008
From bottle, poured dark brown with tan head. Somewhat transparent. Very nice chocolate, coffee aroma. That was easily the best part of this beer. From there it was all downhill. The flavor was very bland. The coffee taste might have been there, but I couldn’t tell. It didn’t taste awful... just watery with no real substance. It felt a little flat too. I’d get it again if I had too, but I’d definitely get others at the same price lever before getting this (such as Bell’s Java Stout).

Tmoney99 (7312) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JAN 10, 2008
Bottle from Belmont Party. Pours dark brown color with an average fizzy light brown head that was lasting with excellent lacing. Moderate roasted coffee and chocolate malty aroma. Medium to full body with a creamy texture. Medium balanced creamy bittersweet flavor with a medium dark dry bittersweet finish of moderate duration. This is a drinkable sweet stout.

PhillyHomeBrew (176) - Forest Hills, New York, USA - JAN 9, 2008
The beer is a dark black color with a small tan head. It smells like coffee and chocolate with a bit of mint and bacon. The flavor is also tastes like it is smoked, which covers much of the coffee taste. $1.79 12 oz bottle.

nuplastikk (2615) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - JAN 8, 2008
12oz bottle. Deep black color. Mellow carbonation. Coffee doesn’t come through that obviously to me. Not a really thick bodied stout, a little watery. All in all a pretty unexceptional beer.

FROTHINGSLOSH (3388) - GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 6, 2008
Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured thick and black with a small dark head. The aroma was bitter and dry roasty malts. The flavor was bitter, dry, roasty and had a subtle coffee flavor. The finish was long, dry and bitter. This is in no way a sweet stout.

chicagodri (1654) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JAN 4, 2008
Pours a dark brown/black with a very thing quickly disappearing tan head. Nice aroma of coffee. The beer itself is sort of thin for a stout. Nice coffee flavor and after taste, but my beer tasted sort of metallic. Easily drinkable.

IlanMan (1015) - Appleton, Wisconsin, USA - DEC 31, 2007
Dark black pour with a medium sized brown creamy head. Medium to light body with strong taste of coffee and light chocolate. I enjoyed this beer a great deal. Recommended.

Very strong coffe smell and the taste even more so. It worked out very well. Excellent beer. Would definitely try again.
