Dark brown to block in color. Decent looking head. A little toasty, roasty, coffee in the taste. A little bit creamy. Smell has some roastiness, a little coffe, toast.

12oz via trade with GAManiac. Pours black with 1 finger tan head. Nose is very chocolatey. Taste is very mocha with a decent amount of coffee and chocolate and some bitterness presumably from the hops.

Awesome low Abv. Stout. Great flavors of coffee, malt, and mocha. Easily the best stout I have had under 8% abv.

Cracked this open on July 4th. Right before the fireworks. Black pour with a nice head. Chocolate, roast and some coffee in the nose. Taste was much the same, pretty well balanced and not overpowering. A fairly drinkable stout. Big thanks to Daknole for sending this my way.

Very nice stout. Nice appearance and aroma. Flavor is typical for the style. Notes of chocolate and coffee. Good stuff.
