Bottle at Union Transfer in Philadelphia, PA. This is liquid coffee. I enjoyed it hanging out before a concert next to a scoop of ice cream, and it was perfect for the moment.

Smells fantastic, and pours dark. When they call it a coffee stout, they are not kidding around. The coffee flavour practically punches you in the face, leaving the beer taste behind. Very bitter, like espresso. I’m sure some people who are into coffee would love this, but I can’t say I enjoyed it.

First off, this looks perfect. Black with with big pillowy tan head. Aroma is light and is creamy coffee. Some chocolate. Taste roasty coffee flavor. Pretty straight forward, basic, but enjoyable with well hidden alcohol on the high end for a session stout.

12 oz. bottle, bonused to me by BrewtopiaofPJ (thanks Mark), pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings out coffee beans upfront, along with some lactose notes, and some hearty oats. Flavour brings out a combination of a cold cup of coffee, oatmeal and a light lactose quality. Finishes on notes of coffee and mild oats. There is a mild sweetness to balance out the other flavours as well. Medium-bodied, but not very complex, but still mildly enjoyable and sessionable - no hint of the ABV. Good stuff.

Pours very black, with brown edges, with a thicker mocha head that settles slowly and leaves some soapy lace. Nose includes vanilla, some dark fruit, dar chocolate, brown sugar, and light coffee. Mostly sweet, but a fair bitterness to balance. Heavier side of medium bodied, full, creamy, slick, softer carb, with a lengthy toasty dry coffee bitter finish. Nice brew, the coffee isn’t big on the nose, but the it comes through in the flavor and on the back end.
