A caramel centered stout accentuated by Ridge Runner French Roast coffee. Instead of simply adding coffee to a stout, we build a stout around the coffee. Coarse ground coffee beans are added in the conditioning tank. Carefully selected coffee adds notes of rich chocolate and toffee to this robust stout.

Poured from a can into a perfect pint. A thick, khaki head aggressively rises to the top but dissapates after a min or two, leaving a nice thin film that laces against the glass walls for the duration of the beer. Smell is malty, biscuity, hazelnut, and coffee. Nice overall aroma. Mouthfeel is full bodied and crisp. The roastiness of the malts shine with coffee that enters the palate halfway through the sip and finish. A very well take on the coffee stout. Could easily drink 2 or 3 with a hot breakfast.

Picked up a 12 oz can from the Blue Door Bottleshop 2-17-22 for $3.00. Canned 12-16-21; consumed 5-2-22.

Beer poured black with a very nice tan head that has some nice hang time.

Nose is coffee and caramel forward which is a nice combination.

Taste is a moderate sized medium roasted malt base that is integrated very well with the coffee bean base. Note of caramel lend a very light touch of sweetness. Finishes with adequate hopping to balance things out. No notes of acrid coffee in the finish.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied and smooth.

Overall a really enjoyable coffee stout!

Just a bit too sweet for me. A very nice stout with a relatively low ABV but I can probably only drink one of these per session. The aroma of coffee, chocolate with some roasted bitterness cutting through works well.

Poured from a can into a pint glass.

Appearance: Dark brown, with only the slightest hint of translucence when held up to light. Large, fluffy head.

Smell: Complex. Lightly roasted coffee, milk chocolate, dark fruit, maybe a touch of hops.

Taste: Roasted coffee beans and barley, dark chocolate. Bitter but not acrid.

Feel: Light-to-medium bodied, with light carbonation.

A wonderful blend of chocolate and coffee into a mid bodied stout. A little bitter in the finish but not too toasty/ashy like some. I like the ABV on this one at 6.5% which makes it very hearty and beefy without being too heavy as it’s still somewhat sessionable and not a sipper. Highly recommend.
