Pours seriously dark brown with a huge fluffy beige head. Aroma is burnt caramel and a bunch of coffee. Flavor is chocolatey and like creamy coffee with an excellent balancing bitterness. Body is light and actually kind of refreshing. Kind of like sweetened iced coffee. Very tasty.

JorgeLee (718) - Greater London, ENGLAND - MAY 20, 2013
On tap in Butcher & The Boar, Minneapolis. Dark brown in colour. Very strong coffee aroma, some mocha, hint of oatmeal, rather brief thin finish. I found the sweetness and curious lack of bitterness made this one a bit tough to get through. Coffee beers are nice enough for a change, I wouldn’t drink them regularly, and this was ok.

Pretty good and worth a try if you like coffee it has a good coffee flavor although I prefer coffee in stouts and sour in a Brown instead.
