| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 3, 2009 Pours dark red/brown with a thick, tan, quickly dissipating head. Nose is heavy, heavy roasted coffee. Flavor is mostly coffee with a slight chocolate note. Basically tastes like iced coffee or Kahlua on the rocks. Pretty thin mouthfeel, but a very clean finish. watson1977 (276), , Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Feb 17, 2009 color is a burnt caramel color with a thin mocha colored head. very nice aroma is dominated by coffee and light grassy hops. tastes of lightly roasted coffee but is a bit chalky and leaves me wanting something more out of it. the mouthfeel is a bit watery and the finish is a bit boring and lacks something...maybe more coffee or roastiness. jkwalking05 (1485), Arlington, Texas, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 8, 2008 12-oz. Thanks, Riverside! Pours a medium brown with garnet highlights. Loose tan head. Big chocolate, coffee, and plum nose. Creamy medium body. Chocolate, cherry, nectarine mid-palate. Mild coffee finish. This one may have thinned out a bit with time in the bottle. Quite possibly it was a bit more dimensional when it was fresh, and maybe even a little amazing. JPDIPSO (4926), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 28, 2008 Dark mahogany Color with a bit of garnet when held to the light. Diminished creamy tan head that is just a thin lid after typing this. Quite sweet in scent. Aromas of brown sugar, lightly roasted to toasted malt, some german chocolate and mild vanilla. Quite sweet, with dark corn syrup, and lightly roasted malt. Some mild cocoa and some dark cherry flavors drift in and out. FInish is somewhat sugary and the linger is has just enough roast to dry it out. Not much in the espresso department. I actually forgot that this had it in the name. For me this was a too sweet and sticky. blankboy (3214), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 22, 2008 My bottle (12oz) shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- courtesy of Thaichile. Pours a murky amber-brown with an average size diminishing tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, grassy hops, lightly burnt brown sugar, alcohol and coffee, of course. Flavour of roasted malt, coffee, milk chocolate, hops, caramel, some sweetness and a roasty bitter finish. Alcohol’s there but not too much. Medium bodied. Creamy mouthfeel. Pretty good stuff, I quite liked it.
