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.

Freshly ground coffee beans with grass and lemon peel puree. Simply black, deep tan frothy sea foam head. Tart chocolate with tannic iced coffee bitterness. Medium to full body, big carbonation, burned coffee and dust finish. Seemed to lack some focus, not bad, just better coffee-style Stouts out there.

Bottle. Poured a nearly opaque dark borwn color with only a bit of ruddy light shining through. The head was thin and brown, but lasted a decent while. Nice enough aroma including the likes of coffee, milk chocolate, and toffee. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. There was a bit of acidity up front, but some delicate sugars emerged toward the end. Coffee, caramel, cherry, and roast nut elements graced the flavor. Pretty tasty.

Bottle thanks to loubrew at BA. Dark brown nearly black with a thin light tan cover. Aroma of green coffee, roasty malt. Taste is bigger roastiness, coffee grounds linger.

Pours jet black with a small dark tan head that dissipates quickly. Roasted coffee aroma as expected. Similar flavor, some coffee, a little watery. The body is a little too light. If they upped the ante on the flavor and body it would be pretty good, as it stands it is rather forgettable (contrary to their description).

Bottled date Sep Week 4. Poured black with a thin tan head. Aromas of coffee (as expected), light roast, and vegetable funk. The flavor had coffee, chocolate, and roast. Medium body, smooth, and a coffee aftertaste.

12oz bottle from BOTW. Pours a dark dark brown with no head. Strong coffee aroma. Flavors are more stout like without anything dominating. Coffee appears in the finish only.

The problem here is that the coffee dominates. That wouldn’t be a problem except the coffee tastes stale. Not great.

Smells sharply of dark chocolate and coffee malts. Taste is dark chocolate malts, a little watery. Not bad, could be better.
