Mikkeller Beer Geek Breakfast

Mikkeller
Brewed at Nøgne Ø
Style: Stout
Copenhagen V, Denmark

Pours a creamy black with a lasting tan head. Smells of coffee and roasted malt. Mostly tastes of dark, bitter chocolate, but also coffee and hops. Smooth mouth feel. Highly drinkable and enjoyable, but Peche Mortel is still my favorite stout brewed with coffee.

Decided to be very literal about it and have this as my breakfast with some italian chocolate cake. That was a match made in heaven. There is so much in here to admire, the union of chocolate and coffee, the wonderfully smooth body, the aftertaste of gourmet coffee... And on top of all that this goes down dangerously easy. And there are hops! Oh sweet lord I would get fat on this if I had it available here, in case of an emergency this would be my manly version of chugging down a pint of hagen daaz....

Bottle from bu11zye, thanks! Pours a rich, dark brown colour with a frothy milk chocolate head. Nice aroma of bitter chocolate and coffee, plus bit of barley wine "fruit". Strong flavour of bitter coffee, roasted malt and some hops. The oatmeal gives it a great mouthfeel. Really phenomenal stout.

Dark brown head. Pours pitch black. Thus, coffee and chocolate comes to mind before tasting, and both are thoroughly confirmed. Bitter, full and sweet.

Bottle brewed at Nøgne Ø. Black pour with a vigorous dark tan head. Aromas of dark roasted malt, coffee and plummy fruit. Near medium body with heavy, creamy carbonation. Strong bitter coffee, smooth malt, burnt toast. Finish is coffee and burnt bitter, but it’s very nicely done. Everything works quite well together.

heavily coffee and oat aroma on top of a very dark brown/black pour with a medium-light tan head. roasted barley, espresso, dark dried fruits (raisin, plum) and red wine tannins. not heavy-bodied but more than medium-bodied, and a thick creamy dance across the palate. roasted finish, green and vinous and hardly bitter; like a high-quality cup of coffee was added to an excellent stout. impressive, far better than other coffee stouts.

Bottle from utobeer in London. Excellent beer. Tastes of oats, roasted malt, coffee, chocolate. Creamy but full bodied.

Awesome stout. Pours black with a quickly dissipating head. Aroma is smokey and chocolately, with coffee and smoked meats. Taste is luscious and full with coffee taking the forefront. Overall, I wish I could drink this for breakfast everyday.
