3.59/5  rDev +2.9%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5
Dark brown color.

Small khaki head; minimal lacing.

Huge chocolate milk nose; delicious!

Thin mouthfeel.

Not as bold in the taste, and the thin mouthfeel is a bit odd, but this is still a nice espresso stout.

Not the game changer I was hoping for.

This might be a really nice beer but the bottle is way over carbonated.
