May 25, 2009 Flaske: Dejlig duft af kaffe på en mørkebrun næsten sort øl. Meget lille skumhoved og næsten ingen karbonering. Kraftig smag af kaffe og karamel. Virkelig en fornøjelse. Alkoholen er næsten ikke mærkbar og med bare en tand mere karbonering ville denne øl have været helt oppe og ringe. Virkelig lækker.

May 12, 2009 Nice coffee flavor, not enough stout flavor. I enjoyed it, but the coffee flavor should be more subtle. The price is always better with Lagunitas though

May 11, 2009 This was excellent. Couldn’t tell it was beer - would have easily mistaken it for a nice iced coffee!!
You get a bit of a bite, some caramel malt, but mostly this is all coffee.

May 10, 2009 Pours clear dark brown tan head.
Coffee and cocoa aroma.
The flavor follows the aroma.
I expected more coffee.
Big for a stout, light for an Imperial Stout.

May 10, 2009 Bottle. My first Lagunitas brew. A dark/reddish brown,like coffee with a small tan head,light carbonation,and loads of lacing. Aroma of coffee with sugar,and just a dash of cream. Flavor is pretty rich for the body being on the thin side, flavors of coffee,sugar,toffee,and hints at chocolate, I detected little hops or any of the higher alcohol content, smooth creamy mouthfeel with a sweet coffee aftertaste, very nice but I would have liked a touch more coffee type bitterness. A very drinkable brew despite being 8.3% ABV, I picked up this bomber for under $5 a very good value IMO,

May 7, 2009 Dear Lagunitas,
I love you guys. Not in that Brokeback Mountain sort of way, I’d say its more similar to that kind of love I have for Jon Lovitz after hearing he knocked out Andy Dick.
I cant help but think if the bottle price was higher than $3.99 and it was a more limited production then the reviews would score it much higher.
Pour resembles a fresh pot of coffee with a nice short head. Great lacing throughout the glass.
Perfect amount of coffee flavoring. The alcohol is hidden perfectly, Rich in flavor like an RIS, but smooth and drinkable like a standard american stout.
I think this is a great offering and I look forward to spending many heterosexual nights bromancing this fine piece of ale.

May 5, 2009 Picked up at Five Points Bottle Shop in Athens, Georgia. Decent black appearance. Nothing special with the pour or head. Average looking stout. Black opaque color. Chocolate and cappuccino is all I have to say about the aroma. Fairly pungent beer. Can’t believe it was this pungent. Easy for the nose to pick up. Nice chocolate and coffee taste. A little too sweet for me. Not really much to balance this out i.e. hops or anything. A fairly decent in your face type of coffee, cappuccino, and chocolate taste. Smooth texture. My only problem is that it is too sweet. Not enough wood or hop flavors to balance it out. Pretty good stout, just too sweet for me, but not bad either.
