Commercial Description:
This ale is a marriage of two savory beverages, Lakefront Stout and Fuel Cafe blend Alterra coffee. The body of the stout is brought about by the perfect blend of five specialty grains and generous use of two row malted barley. The light hopping of the stout brings out it's malty sweetness which complements the Fuel Cafe coffee flavor to bring about a rich satisfying taste. The coffee used in the beer is the same house blend that is used at the Fuel Cafe and is roasted by Alterra Coffee right here in Milwaukee. For this brew, Lakefront uses its brewing kettles to make the largest coffee pot in Milwaukee.

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.

(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

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.

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.
