does not count  Sep 28, 2009 One of my most favorite beers. Very dark and full, but the coffee and cream flavors are absolutely fantastic. A must have when on tap at Triumph!

Coffee roast aroma. Small beige head. Black slightly rich and smooth on the palate with a bitter lasting full coffee finish.

Jun 13, 2009 Dark brown frothy pour with thick tan head and lace. Aroma of hard coffee, and roasted malt. Semi chocoffee flavor dominated by coffee. A nice malt bitter finish. Medium bodied with smooth carbonation. A tad thin kept it from scoring a tad higher. A very nice beer.

Jun 10, 2009 pint at brewpub, Ok to good aroma, sweet, coffee, milk, sugar. Dark orangy brown color, good head & lace. Sweet bitter flavor. Lite body, thin mouthfeel, mild bitter finish, Easy to drink, had moments when I thought it would go over the top, but never quite did. Looked great, aroma was reall good too.

Jun 7, 2009 On tap at Triumph in Philly. Aroma is mocha and coffee, very smooth smelling and sweet. Palate is creamy from the nitro carbonation, though not “full” by any means. Flavor was a continuation of the aroma, though a bit more subdued: there was dark chocolate and coffee upfront, leading into a roasted-though-sweet finish. Not a whole lot going on here, but a satisfying drink.

Jun 5, 2009 Tap at the Princeton brewpub. An excellent beer for under 5% ABV. Aroma of coffee, roast, and chocolate. Flavor is sweet mocha with cream and also some roasted malt. Smooth and creamy on the palate. The highlight of the evening there.

May 26, 2009 Updated: May 29, 2009Draft at the Olde City location. Pours near black with a thin beige head. The aroma has coffee and roasted malts, with a dark chocolate creaminess. Creamy smooth mouthfeel. The flavor has roasted coffee and a nice creamy sweetness. Very good.

May 22, 2009 On tap at the brewpub, Philthy. Very nice pour, in a tall glass like it’s a milkshake. Thick and creamy pour, with an awesomely frothy head. Aroma could be sharper but still quite nice, coffee and choc. The mouthfeel is a delight, and the beer has a deep lactic quality to it that’s quite pleasing. I wanted more depth and complexity, but it’s certainly a winner as a more-than-sessionable stout.
