A: Stout. Black. Great lace. Big lasting head, almost like a nitro pour.
S: Coffee cup. Milky.
M: Perfect? Sweet, milky, slight bitter, thin at the end.
T: Coffee bitter. Huge sweet creamy milk stout taste, with coffee shelf, like coffee above, beer below. Wonderful.
O: I could have drank this all night.

" This full bodied sweet stout will take you to the north pole at mystical speeds! Aging this beer on 5 pounds of espresso delivers an aggressive finish that will make you believe! "
A - Quite a weird pour for Nitro the head separated from the beer and clung to the sides forming a haze. When rotated the bubbles would rise to the top. Fun! Color is a deep black with a full inch of mocha head.
S - Well damn it smells good. rich chocolates, malted milk balls, cocoa, creme, and of course coffee.
T - Well they did it again it seems they took the aging of chocolate from the 8'oclock stout and mixed it with the smooth chocolate taste of Malted Mazy's Chocolate Milk Stout. The end gives some sweet vanilla taste, obvious coffee, and a smooth chocolate finish. Great!
M - Kind of thin my only complaint. Still very slick and creamy.
Overall maybe if they didn't serve it on nitro this would be just as good as the imperial stout. Makes me wonder why they even add CO2 to stouts anyway they just make the body lighter and kill some of the taste...
