Commercial Description:
Oatmeal and 20 pounds of fresh roasted coffee from the Ugly Mug Cafe contribute to a mildly chalky espresso character balanced by a rich, sweet, creamy maltiness. coffee finish dissolves into chocolate with a slight roasty bitterness.

Black no head whatsoever. Aroma all bitter day old coffee grinds and not much else. Flavor much the same with strangesugary taste near finish. Body/mouthfeel really thin.

Bitter sour thin flat still coffe-laden liquid resembling beer. Aroma is all coffee that’s been laying on the heating element too long. Unfortunately not good.

Dark brown, with a tan head. Aroma is coffee, roasted malt, and sugar. Flavor is coffee, sugar, and roasted malt. Body is way too thin.

wow. lots of carbonation in this bottle. maybe shouldve sat even longer. ive had it in the cellar for 2 months. a mild coffee scent. pour even looked a little watery. taste is also a little watery compared to others. nice dark color however. pretty good, wouldn’t go out of my way to get it again.

Bottle: Pours a dark brown with a very small tan head. Aroma, roasty, coffee, chocolate, earthy. Flavor, roasted coffee notes, some chocolate, dry roasty finish. There is some buttery notes, it’s on the thin side as well.

Dark brown body with ruddy highlights at the edges, thin tan head. Aroma is mostly coffee and roasted malts. Rather dry, plain body of coffee beans. Soft, rather thin. Light sweetness. Seems everyone has picked up on the "Breakfast Stout" theme, but Founders reigns supreme (and, I admit, I’m biased).

12 oz bottle, pours deep brown and nearly flat. Coffee and roast and sweet aroma, slightly phenolic and artificially acidic. Overly acidified and somewhat medicinal, not a very good coffee stout. Definitely feels like extract was added, although really not bad.
