mgermani (558), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Apr 22, 2008 Pours a jet black with a light ring of foam. Holy espresso, Batman! What a fantastic aroma! Very pungent! Tastes fantastic - espresso through and through. Chocolate covered espresso beans, milky too - a bit of latte in there. Nice and roasty. Thin body, but creamy with passable but minimal carbonation. What a true dessert beer, very nice!
Sammy (2959), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 24, 2008 On-tap at Gastown. This is now the Expresso Stout. chocolate colour, a little mocha head. Favourful though medium mouthfeel. Way too much coffee and coffee grains. Tipsy_McStager (816), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Oct 16, 2007 roasty coffee aroma. Nice dark colour and head. Expresso coffee flavour, thin malt, dry finish. presario (2383), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Sep 15, 2007 GCBF sample. Dark beer. Strong coffee sent. Good head. Dark coffee flavour. CapFlu (3242), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Sep 10, 2007 Updated: Mar 12, 2008(Draught) Sampled at the Great Canadian Beer Festival 2007 in Victoria on September 7th, 2007. Strong coffee aroma. Black with a yellow head. Mild tin flavour mingles with the potent coffee grounds. Very good.(8/4/7/3/15). Sampled again at the brewpub on March 11, 2008. This really is a wonderful beer. The nose has so many elements: mocha latte, espresso, vanilla bean and very alcoholic perfume. Flavour is full and powerful coffee with a decent vanilla base. Very little fault with this beer. (10/4/8/4/17).
