Not my taste but nice. markwise (1132), 15 Minutes from Kuhnhenn in, Florida, USA Feb 16, 2009 Thanks group for the share. Pours dark black/ brown with a tan head. Aroma is roasted coffee, vanilla, earth, and roasted malts. Flavor is dark malt, dark coffee, chocolate, and some milky qualities. Incredible, and very nice. Full bodied and enjoyable- I wish it was available in Florida. ChrisThomson (380), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 15, 2009 I first had this one in CPH in 2008. This one pours a thick black colour with minimal brown head.Has a complex chocolate and espresso taste with enough sweetness to balance the alcohol. Clearly one of the best canadian beers. DuffMan (2719), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada Feb 14, 2009 Thick pour, black, with a slow-to-rise brown cap. Sweet coffee cake aroma, very intense! Palate is heavy and velvety, rich layers of sweet chocolate and strong french roast coffee. Finish is long, dry, and a little salty. Wow this is fantastic! Thanks for getting this to me Trev-- a fitting brew for my last Canadian beer for 6 months! Off to New Zealand... DalzAle (476), Eden Prairie, Minnesota, USA Feb 13, 2009 Bottle. Dark black pour with minimal carbonation. Aroma was espresso and not much else. Flavor was robust coffee and a little bit of vanilla on the finish. Very smooth and no notice of alcohol, which is surprising consifering the 9.5 ABV. Wish this one was easier to get and a little cheaper. Sonicdescent (374), Donora, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 13, 2009 Worth the hype, and rather easy to come by to boot! Coffee Coffee Coffee, from the look, to the smell, to the taste. The only weak spot in this beer is the Palate, I was hoping for something slightly chewier from a stout this robust. Nitpicking aside, this is a fantastic beer.
