Took that one at the Mondial 2006. A nice dark black body with a dark brown thin head who disappear quickly. It really smells like a cola soft drink with a hint of peppermint (strange...) and some roasted coffee. Flavor of sour berries, black tea and chocolate mint. I didn't really liked it... In fact, I think that one was infected but maybe that was the REAL taste of it !? For sure, I wont try it again for a while.

The pour was stout black with an ambitious light brown head that left good lacing.
The aroma was lost to my COVID damaged nose, but I'm guessing it was pretty good.
the taste- no idea how they managed to get the elements of creme brûlée in there but they managed. Caramelized sugar, the vanilla, some lactose and coffee all lead in the flavors, chocolate rather serves to round out any rough edges, all without being very sweet. Impressive.
The feel is soft and smooth, I'm relatively sure they used lactose in this and that tends to add that type of mouth feel.
OA, good stout, I'll definitely be getting more!

Color- black
Smell- good, some coffee smell.
Taste- wonderful. The mixes of malt within this beer balances well with the smokiness and the coffee within the beer. Slightly chocolatey.
Feel- smooth.
Overall- A very enjoyable brew.

Pours a black color with a minimal head that disappears quickly. Aroma is coffee, caramel and roasted malts. Taste is sweet carame, vanilla and coffee. Good mouth feel. Enjoyable.

Mmmmmmm! One of my Top 10!
Amazing!
Worth the trip to Warren, Michigan if they have this on tap.
I know, I know, why would anybody that has a lucid mind mind suggest that you should travel to Warren Michigan? I get it.
But if Kuhnhenn's Tap Room has CBJS on tap well, that is about as fine a reason as anyone could ever give ya!
