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.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - APR 26, 2006
An opaque brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of roasted coffee, but also a faint note of butter. The flavor is sweet roasted combined with light notes of malt, coffee, and vegetables.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAY 6, 2006
(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a deep, dark brown - almost black - with a wee orangey hue. Neat, creamy beige head. Malty, lightly burned aroma perhaps with a touch of coffee. Perhaps a whiff of butter also. Medium-bodied with lots of roasted malt. Lightly burned, bitter finish. Luckily that touch of butter never made it to the flavour. 170406

Oakes (10009) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - MAY 29, 2002
Black. Very coffeeish aroma. Slightly thin body. lots of coffee, which I usually don’t go for, but this is a quality roast, with none of the vegetal flavours found in some other coffee beers. Smoothly drinkable.

fiulijn (10000) - Como, ITALY - APR 21, 2006
Black color. Aroma of malt and fudge. Good body structure; malty and with good roasted malt; some coffee and roasted malt; very light sourness. Balanced, well blended, original, complex. This is a good beer Henrik!

bu11zeye (9626) - Frisco (Dallas), Texas, USA - MAY 21, 2005
(Bottle) Pours a black body with a large creamy light brown head. Aroma of roasted coffee and rich chocolate. Nice balance of coffee and chocolate in the flavor. Thanks for the beer Dave!

argo0 (9034) - Washington DC, USA - NOV 24, 2004
Black body, ever so slightly tinged red around the edges, topped by medium tan head. Aroma is strong roasty coffee, light chocolate. Taste is mild sweet, roasty coffee, light cherry. Watery medium body, some creaminess. I guess I want more sweetness to balance out the strong roastiness, but overall I did not like this one that much.

12 oz bottle-pours a dissipating brown head and black color. Aroma is dark fruit-some tart, chocolate/molasses-dark malt, secondary earthy hops. Taste is dark fruit-some tart, coffee/chocolate/molasses-dark malt, secondary earthy/chickory hops. Aggressive carbonation, porter like. Thanks jwc215 for sharing this.
