Syrupy with a thin tan ring on the edge. Thinnish body, sharply burnt roast as if blanched. Creamy frothy coffee finish. Intense like a doppio. thejon375 (392), Tampa, Florida, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 12, 2009 big roasted aroma with tons of taste. A good choice for a cold day. Nice appearance of hops for the style. LtDan (538), Los Angeles County, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Appearance: A midnight brown with a ring of suds gathered at the top.
Aroma: Foldgers instant coffee crystals and a little bit of semi-sweet chocolate.
Taste: Foldgers coffee, semi-sweeet chocolate and little bit of a berry twang (if this was coffee, I would associate it with an acidic note).
Mouthfeel: Silky, coating and very carbonated.
Overall: I am really into coffee. I drink a nice sized serving a day. I love dark roasted beans from Peets, Starbucks, and Trader Joes. I haven’t had Foldgers since I worked for my dad as a teenager. Foldgers isn’t undrinkable, but it isn’t that good. It has a unique roastiness, and it’s all my senses could come up with when drinking this beer. JAF737300 (801), Tampa, Florida, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured thick black and oily with a small very dark brown head. The aroma was roasty, malty, toasty with coffee and light touches of smoke, wood, and floral hops. The flavor was sweetish, roasty and grainy with notes of coffee, chocolate and wood. There was a long roasty coffee finish. The mouthfeel was thick. Very Good. jthg (68), Austin, Texas, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 4, 2009 Coffee up front. Sweet taste takes this great beer through the full cycle of a perfect combo of malt and coffee to end with a clean finish. Almost perfect.
This beer does not sit jaunitly in the back of the throat much to my dismay.
"I am switching from coffee to this beer!" Elwood (684), Leesburg, Virginia, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Mar 3, 2009 12 oz. bottle. At first I thought I was pouring out used motor oil. Small, dark brown head that dissipates into an espresso like lacing. I can smell this one from two feet away! Espresso, chocolate, licorice, roasted oats, coffee, it’s all there. Low carbonation, but wow!, talk about thick! Nice and oily too. Big coffee flavors up front, lots of roasted oates, vanilla, chocolate malt. Lots of layered flavor but a clean aftertaste. Like a great chocolate coffee oatmeal cookie. A must try!
