4/25/2009: Dark Horse Perkulator Coffee Dopplebock has a weak coffee aroma and is grainy with more of that "green" coffee flavor to it. This beer is okay, but I was really hoping/expecting something more out of it!
Sample from bottle at Dark Lord Day 2009. Rating #153 for this beer.

May 3, 2009 Bottle received via a random trade while waiting in line at DLD09. Pour was very dark amber brown. Aroma of coffee and a little booze. Flavor was big, bold caramel and alcohol right away and then finished with some coffee, alcohol and brown sugar. Decent beer, glad I came across this one.

Apr 30, 2009 Dark brown with no head. Aroma is dark fruit with coffee and chocolate. Flavor is exactly the same as the aroma with the chocolate providing a deep resonance. A hop based zing lights up the mouth is assisted by alcohol. A nice and flavorful beer..

Apr 29, 2009 12 oz bottle. Looked interesting, split the 4pk 4 ways, so it was cheap too. Pours a traditional dark horse no head, but is black with hints of brown around the corners. You can smell this from the second you crack open the bottle. Tons of coffee comes at you. I love coffee beers, but this does not smell like good coffee. Having said that, if you have a congested nasal cavity, this might clear it out. Tastes of roasted (over-roasted in my opinion) coffee, and thats about it. Little bit of an after taste, but it goes down smooth. Really this is a roasted iced coffee (with unknown amount of alcohol). Interesting, but a little boring.

Apr 13, 2009 Cracked open with a decent amount of fuzz, so its got to be decently fresh. Nice aroma as soon as it hit the bottle with a dark brown/red color. Taste is coffee and not much else. Doesn’t leave much of an aftertaste at all. I dont know if its alcohol burn or burnt coffee in the overall taste. It could use more malt in the body, feels a little light for a dopplebock even. Decent. Had to try it, but i dont think i’d do it again.

Apr 5, 2009 Liquid Sunshine V. Very cool concept--they get some originality points for sure. 12-oz. Crystal clear medium rubied amber. No head. No lace. Big light-roast coffee bean nose. Creamy medium body, very low carb. The coffee dominates the mid-palate as well, but some caramel and nutty, woody notes emerge to balance it out.

Apr 5, 2009 Headless and of a burning sky sunset orange color. Lifeless looking body. Intense burnt coffee grain dominates the aroma. The body is likewise decidedly grainy, with burnt coffee roast, and roast barley. Somewhere, black pepper makes an appearance.
