Commercial Description:
Terrapin Midnight Project Brew Two 2009. Sometime around midnight in a city nobody can agree on, the idea for Terrapin and Left Hand to brew a collaboration beer was born. Depth Charge is the second in the series of one-time releases between the two breweries. Be wary of the calm before the storm. This creamy, deeply delicious milk stout will seduce you into submission while the explosion of hand roasted gourmet espresso will blow you into next week. We Shall Drink in the breweries. We Shall Drink in the pubs, We Shall Drink the the comfort of our homes. We Shall Never Surrender.

22 oz bomber split with Adrian. Pours a dark brown, almost black colour with a frothy beige head. Aroma of coffee, roasted malts, and chocolate.  Strong flavor of espresso, bitter dark chocolate, roasted malts and a hint of lactose. Quite good, though I ended up throwing out a 1/4 of my share.

Bottle… Pours midnight black and sits menacingly in my glass with a small, creamy, khaki head. The aroma is a roasted, acrid, earthy swirl of coffee grounds, chocolate and oak with a scraping of vanilla. Medium-bodied with a fizzy mouthfeel. Sweet mocha flavor – coffee grounds and chocolate. Sweet, spent-coffee-grounds finish. Bottle courtesy of smith4498!

Bottle. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of coffee grounds mostly, some rich roasted malt too. Flavor is balanced between the roasted malt and espresso notes. Very rich and hearty for a 6.5% brew. Super smooth palate. Overall, a solid milk stout. 8/4/8/4/16 [4.0/5]

The Dan Journal #320. Tasted 12/16/09. 22oz bomber. Pitch dark hue with a moldy khaki head. Faint aromas but totally coffee. Full bodied and super smooth. Good malty flavors with a big hint of cola. Milky smooth, but offset with the coffee astringency and bitterness. Great collaboration and totallt tasty!

I enjoyed this more then I feel my rating lets on. Great coffee character mixed with a ncie milky chocolatness. A little thin, that never really wows you but at the same time is very conistently tasty from pour to finish. Some nice notes of espresso, a good hoppiness, and all so smooth. Very nice. Another treat from secret santa 09.
