Part of the Pinup Pack. Bottled on 4-9-13
Poured in to my Stone snifter.

Appearance was dark as brown can be with out being Black, showcasing an impressive mocha three finger head that destroyed the walls of the glass with sticky lacing.
The nose picked up the sweet roasted malts with coffee beans and espresso.
The taste was a espresso lovers dream. Sweet and slightly acidic. Dark and roasted to perfection with out being burnt. Flavors were authentic , crisp, fresh and bright. Like the sunrise on a new day.
Mouthfeel was solid as it should be for the style. Carbonation was present with out interfering with the drinking qualities of this brew. Suds would bounce back with a quick swirl of the glass.
Overall I would say this beer is underrated. I liked everything about it, from the label to the long lasting aftertaste. Two thumbs up.

From draft, solid black with a light head. Coffee and malt aroma with a hint of chocolate. Smooth coffee taste with malt and chocolate coming through at the end. Full bodied with minimal carbonation.

Solid black with light carbonation. Body is just above average
Aroma is espresso, roasted malt, black coffee, dark and milk chocolate.
Taste is very espresso forward with roasted malt. The dark and milk chocolate notes follow and add to the flavor and aftertaste.
Overall it's not first class but still a very flavorful espresso stout

Pours deep dark chocolate with light fading khaki head. Strong aroma of sweet coffee and toasted chocolate. Taste of expresso and dark chocolate infused creamy smooth stout. Small “stout” bite and smooth malty backbone.

From the bottle, it pours a dark black color with a small head, soon diminishing to nothing. Seriously, nothing. Coffee in the nose. The mouth gets a coffee flavor with a malt backbone.

Pours a very dark, almost black, with a hardy brown head. A mild coffee and chocolate fragrance. The coffee comes through in the flavor too. A slight bit of sweetness comes through, a balance to the bitter hops.

A: The beer is jet black in color. It poured with a short beige colored head that quickly settled down, leaving a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface and a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of dark malts and espresso beans are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell, except that the flavors of espresso beans are stronger and also add a light amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This stout makes for a nice breakfast beer and has a good amount of espresso beans in the taste. It hides its alcohol ver well and isn't that heavy in body.
