Commercial Description:
You’ve got to love coffee to truly appreciate this phenomenal brew. Brewed with an abundance of flaked oats, bitter and sweetened imported chocolates, Sumatra and Kona coffee. We’re actually not sure if this is some type of coffee cake or a beer. Either way you can drink this ale with a fork. Breakfast Stout has an intense fresh roasted coffee nose toped with a cinnamon colored frothy head that seems to never fade and makes you wish breakfast could last forever.

Coffee! Coffee! Coffee! Wonderful roasted malt aroma......and pitch black with a minute brown lacing. The flavor is an coffee shop unreal I am so lucky o be able to enjoy this as often as I do.....the finish is amazing as it leaves a vanilla, espresso and a extremely bitter chocolate bite. supurb.

12 oz bottle. Black with a thin dark tan head. Strong roasted coffee aromas. A smooth creamy chewy mouthfeel. Lots of chocolate mixed in with the roast flavors.

Silky smooth and goes down easy for such a dark brew. Explodes with flavor and leaves a nice creamy finish. This along with the Fullers London Porter are in my top three...

Dear lord. Bottle poured into a frosted glass. Nose is coffee and chocolate. Tiny tan head that laces the glass wonderfully. The taste - the fucking TASTE! Its everywhere! Its coffee, its chocolate, its roasted, its bitter and its smooth. A nice milky texture on your palate. This is one to take slowly and admire every last drop. Jesus Christ...

Simply put, the best stout I’ve ever had and my favorite to boot. I didn’t take any notes but I know that all the elements were there, rich coffee delectability, smooth chocolate overtones, hints of cherry, dark and dried fruits. A touch of sweetness but easily the most drinkable high gravity beer I’ve yet tasted. If I could brew any beer flawlessly this is the one I would imitate.

Coffee flavored explosion! Hint of chocolate backed up by monstrous coffee flovor. A smooth stout with a nice lingering finish.

What a great beer. Great chocolately after taste. Well balanced brew. Worth the effort to find it!

on tap - Capone’s Restaurant - Norristown, PA - WOW - such a great stout! Pours black as tar with a deep tan head. Mild aroma of coffee and roasted malts - maybe some lactose, but if so, very very little. Flavor is crisp and big. Dry unsweetened chocolate, roasted malts and coffee flavors abound. Finishes crisp and clean with a nice cleansing hop bite. A damn near perfect stout.
