This batch is 5.6% abv. Had at the Triumph Brewing Company in Princeton, NJ on 6/11/11.

Appearance: Black with a short creamy brown head, left some lacing

Smell: Like good dark roast coffee with a little cream and sugar in it. Seriously, like I had cold coffee in front of me and not beer.

Taste: Like the smell, it was primarily dark roast coffee with a little cream and sugar, but you could also taste some good roasted malts in there. Quite delicious.

Mouthfeel: Decent carb/nitro, very creamy feel, medium body

Overall: Pretty good, very different. It is an idea that I wanted to see done after I had Southern Tier's Jahva, and I'm glad I've had it!

This beer made the trip to Princeton worth it. It's a very dark brown with a creamy tan head which lasts for a long time in the mouth and on the sides of the glass, and it smells like sweet roasted coffee grounds.

The taste is of coffee, coffee, coffee (I honestly wondered if I was at some sort of amazing alcoholic's WaWa) and some sweet cream, with a very smooth, creamy, milk-stout like mouthfeel. An exceptional dessert beer--I'm not much of a stout person usually, but I am a coffee person, and oh, this is an exceptional coffee beer.

Appearance- very dark with a nice brown head

Smell- definitely picked up the coffee and cream in the scent, through me off at first because of how overwhelming it was

Taste- The usual stout taste at first and a nice chocolaty after-taste

Mouthfeel- exactly what a stout should be smooth and chewy

Drinkability- Easily consumed, what else to say?

It's nice to have a brewery that close to my college, and even better when they put out an excellent stout like this

Coffee & Cream Stout | on-tap| ?% ABV | 2010

Brewer: Triumph Brewing Company

Appearance:
Deep coffee-brown beverage sporting a creamy tan head

Aroma:
Coffee grounds and a milky sweetness.

Taste:
Bitter dark chocolate and stale coffee with some roasted malts in the back.

Mouthfeel:
Smooth and creamy.

Overall a nice stout, especially compared to Triumph's standard, though not that impressive considering what other breweries are putting out these days.

Would I get it again?:
If at Triumph then yes. I would not seek it out.
