Commercial Description:
This unique stout combines the flavor of roasted malts and Milwaukee's reknown FUEL CAFE coffee. The fine balance of mild hops, the gentle acidity of choice cofee and the sweetness of the barley makes this an unforgettable brew.

Roast malt and some coffee aroma with hint of hop and some fruity sourness. Black with small fine tan head. Coffee and roast malt flavor with a bit of dry sour astringency. Hint of some grassy floral hops but they have a hard time coming through all the malts and coffee. Medium light mouthfeel and fairly well carbonated. Finish is dry and slightly sour. Sweet stout bordering on a dry? Very tasty.

Bottle: Poured a dark brown/black color with not much head. The aroma was coffee beans and chocolate. The flavor was bitter, very bitter. It had some creaminess to it as well. Overall, just OK...nothing great.

Bottle. Thick black with tan head. Aroma is slightly sour then yields to intense coffee bean and brewed coffee with almond syrup shot added. Soft mouthfeel and decent carbonation. Also sour entry especially noticed on sides of the mouth. Also has some roasted chocolate malt, lactic acid at the end. Not bad, not good.

Deep, deep brown. Close to black. Some reddish notes, but not really cola like. Head is a light brown, kinda thin, and similar to sizzling grease in the pan. Roasted coffee and malts - almost the same between the two, kind of strangely. Chocolatey with some pleasant coffee notes. Strange flavours... kinda metallic. The coffee is almost artificial - or cheap. Roast malts, and a slightly sour flavour (close to sour fruits?). Maybe that’s a hint that there is something wrong with it, but hard to say. Prickly with a bit of creaminess. Medium body. Some slippery sensations Not bad... just something a little off about it. Not one I could see myself going after again, though I might to see if I just got a bad bottle.

12 oz bottle. Pours a very dark brown with 1 cm of tan head that diminishes in the time it takes me to walk to the other room. I think there is some stuff suspended in the beer. Aroma of malt and a hint of coffee. Initial flavor of sweet mat, light creamy coffee comes in towards the end. No carbonation, light body, no lacing, no alcohol presence. Overall, wondering if I got a bad bottle, disappointed with this one.

Bottle. This poured a appetizing dark brown. Quality in taste just wasn’t there. It taste like coffee but the coffee you get at a gas station at 3am. Just not high quality.
