Commercial Description:
This foreign style stout has actually been infused with espresso beans, roasted by our favorite locally owned and operated coffee house. It has an intense roast character with a sharp but pleasant full-bodied finish. Special thanks go out to Kevin and Lisa Meyers, the owners of Flying M Coffee House. With out them we probably wouldn't be awake to brew beer at all. "This is a REAL breakfast of champions."

@Mountain Beerfest-on tap-pours a light brown head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-hot chocolate/some coffee. Taste is dark malt-strong coffee/oatmeal, some bitter/astringent.

Loved the nose on this one. Liked the dried fruit tones in both the nose and flavor. Roast malt was a little forward, but still relatively easy drinking. Espresso bean notes were evident, but not overpowering.
