What Our Panel Thought
Aroma: “Dark roast coffee and roasted malt. Biscuity, toasted rich malt in the background. Spicy alcohol. Mild chocolate.”
Flavor: “Coffee-forward, followed by roast malt and alcohol. Medium hops bitterness complements roast notes. Starts quite sweet and transitions to a moderately intense acrid bitterness that’s emphasized by the medium high carbonation. The alcohol brings out a nice nuttiness and accentuates the cocoa highlights. Pleasant caramel, too.”
Overall: “Well-crafted beer. The balance of coffee and malt is nice. Alcohol warming is pleasant.”
What the Brewers Say
“Black as night, this coffee stout is thick, rich, and full of real coffee flavor. A unique blend of coffee produces a robust and flavorful beer that will leave you asking, ‘Why not beer for breakfast?’”
