Commercial Description:
Three thousand feet above sea level in the misty mountains of Jamaica, some of the worlds finest Arabica beans are hand picked on their way to becoming Blue Mountain Coffee. Halfway around the world, plump spring barley grows to maturity in the loamy soil of North America while aromatic hops are cutivated to exacting standards. Here in our kettles, these three special ingredients are blended to create a heady mixture of sweet sugar, dark roast, and complex flavor. Please enjoy this brew in moderation.

Thanks to my inlaws for this one. Pours a near-black with russet highlights. Aroma of rich treacle, coffee, bitter chocolate, with vegetal undertones. Heavy, silky, rich palate. Flavours of coffee, chocolate liqueur, maple syrup, and hints of spice. Bitter dry finish. Absolutely NO hint of the ABV! Luxurious.

22oz - Smoky nose, dark black pour, very little carbonation and no head. Tasted like a sweetened cup of coffee. Delivered what it advertised.

Black with a red hue. Lasting tan head. Aroma of chocolate and licorice, with rich toffee malt. Nicely subdued coffee beans. Very sweet and slightly sugary flavour. Roasted flavours and again, some nice coffee notes, but the overall impression is terribly cloying sweetness, and quite a bit of alcohol.
