Apr 3, 2008 Black body, nice thick brown head. Deep roasted, burnt, coffee aroma. Almost medium bodied, roasty, coffeeish, malts are there to counter roast. But this is all about how intense they could reasonably get the coffee taste...good job.

Apr 2, 2008 bottle from rustico. pours an opaque black, creamy brown head that shows no signs of going anywhere. nose is (you guessed it) all coffee...caramel, vanilla. flavor is big malt up front but immediately hits with the roasted espresso flavor. finish is a hint of caramel but mostly roast. i can’t decide if i like this or not (disclaimer: i’m not a coffee drinker). it’s quite good, but the aggressive coffee flavor is a tad off-putting.

Mar 26, 2008 Aroma is strong and mainly of unsweetened chocolate; there are some coffee and malt hints. It pours a deep sable, almost black, with a thick, dark tan head. Flavor is chocolaty and has some smoky, malt and hop undertones. Texture is smooth and pleasant. Drinking this beer is somewhat like drinking liquid unsweetened chocolate that has a little well-roasted coffee in it.

Mar 25, 2008 Quality stout from the Japanese. I wasn’t a huge fan of this particular coffee flavor, but its still good.

Mar 18, 2008 Bottle thanks to Jordan. Pours a deep black with a nice thick cream colored head. The aroma is mostly a strong coffee bean and burnt malts. The taste is also much like a rich and hearty cup of coffee with some malts and creamy sweetness thrown in. A good beer for sure. Perhaps for breakfast would be best. Anyone have some toast and scones?

Mar 11, 2008 This one is pitch black with a medium mocha head almost as thick as whip cream. The aroma is roasted malt, dark chocolate and coffee. Taste is similar to the aroma with maybe a little more roasted malt. The body is amazingly creamy, in fact, I have never had such a creamy beer. It is a wonderful dessert beer. I was very surprised by this one!

Mar 10, 2008 If you drink Folger’s, this beer is for you!!! Dark mahogany body with cocoa head, the aroma is of bitter coffee and little else. Flavor is also of bad coffee and the palate thin. There is no depth here. Simple, bitter, weak. Not a favorite.
