Rock Bottom Minneapolis Coconut Milk Stout

On tap at the brewpub. Poured dark brown/black with a small brown head. Aroma of dairy, coffee, and roasted malts. No discernable coconut. The same applies for the flavor; roasted, malty, mostly sweet and smooth with a nutty finish. Can’t say I detect any sort of coconut here...a smooth, drinkable stout, but somewhat one-dimensional and lacking any real depth.

Draft @ Brewpub. Black pour with a tan head. Aroma of light roasted malt, chocolate and light cream. Flavors of toasted coconut, bitter chocolate, roasted malt and coffee. Medium body, roasty/light sweetness roasty/nutty finish. Nice.

Draft @ Minneapolis Brewpub: Black, tan head, light lacing. Nose of light roast and chocolate, sweet raisin and cocoa, a little coffee. The flavor is smooth and creamy, a robust finish, no coconut noticeable but great.

On tap before RBSG 07 grand tasting. A creamy black pour with a nice brown head. Flavor of semi sweet chocolate milk with a hint of bitter in the finish. Palate was just a tad thin, but my favorite beer at the RB this day. A beer I would be proud to say I made, but then that would be a lie? Good beer.

On tap (sampler) at the Minneapolis location, RBSG 2007 pre-tasting dinner. Listed as Coconut Milk Stout. Black with a light brown head. Good lace. Bittersweet chocolate and coffee nose. Flavors follow the nose - no coconut? That aside, a pleasant soft mouthfeel rounds out a solid stout. Nice.
