L- Black with a little bit of dark tan colored head.

S- Cocoa powder and coffee.

T- Good balance of roast (from the malts and the coffee) and the sweet cocoa flavor.

F- Good rich, thick mouthfeel, more prevalent when it's at cellar temp. Still solid when warm.

O- Tasty, well-balanced coffee stout. Not quite as good as Smore Luv, but it's a bit less sweet. One of the better non-BA stouts I've had.

It's like drink a hersey bar... obviously on the sweet side but not so much that it's hard to finish my glass. Thicker then most ba stouts.

on tap at Ram: Schaumburg in a tulip

Lots of chocolate and coffee flavors. Its not overly sweet but it does have some sweetness. The mouth feel was creamy and low carbonation. Overall: I can't wait till these beers are more available especially Gimme Samoa.

Very little tan head. Black color.

Pure cocoa powder. Hershey's syrup. The coffee shows in the finish and as it warms. Nesquick.

Big full bodied stout. A bit sweet.

Solid, but not crazy.

Dark color with some lacing. The nose is all mellow coffee (probably the cocoa balancing it out). The taste is a good blend of the roastiness of the stout and the coffee. The feel is quite good for a non-BA beer with a decent amount of body. Overall, a very good beer and one of my favorite non-BA beers.
