For That Extra Krunk
Coffee is my shepherd; I shall not doze. It maketh me to wake in green pastures. It leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses. It restoreth my brain, It leadeth me in the paths of consciousness for it's name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of sleep, I will fear no artificial sweetener for thou art with me; Thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me. Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of my zzz's, Thou anointest my day with sunlight; My cup runneth over. Surely richness and flavor shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of Cappuccino forever... Let us sip... or whatever...

Dark ruby-black color, roasted caramel and coffee aroma, coffee, plum-caramel flavor, creamy smooth and full mouthfeel. Nice tan clingy head, leaves a nice lacing in my glass, nice stout.

Black in color with minimal light penetration. There’s a half inch of creamy brown on top. The aroma is of cappuccino and dark chocolate. I’m tasting cappuccino and dark chocolate. The mouth is oily, viscous, and dry.

Pours a solid black body with a fluffy white head. Smell is coffee, a little chocolate and malt. Taste is coffee, milk chocolate, malt, touch of hop bitterness, and a little sugar. Medium body, pretty close to a cup of cappuccino actually. Overall, for the price this is pretty darned good. Not my favorite, but price wise you could consume this more regularly so, a winner.

One of the beers I make it a point to pick up every year. Looks like I've rated this anywhere between 3.5-4.75, but averaging 4.25. A great value at around five bucks a bomber.

[Original rating 2017-01-27] Smells like a rusty coffee can. Tastes like some day old maxwell house out of that can.

Definitely not my favorite from Lagunitas. Pours brown; mocha head. Aroma is raisins; I can pick up Cappuccino notes after somewhat intense sniffing. Taste is dark chocolate and rasiniy, but no real cappuccino. Feel is medium carbonation with some warming quality. Overall, it's decent. Wouldn't get it again though.

Pours black with a quarter inch light brown head that was fairly well retained and left very little lacing. Smells and tastes of cold brew coffee, milk chocolate, sweet malts and lactose. Light to medium bodied for the style, lightly carbonated, mouth feel is on the thin side for a stout, moderate bitterness.

7/7/18: $4.49 3/4/18 Binny's purchase. 1 pint 6 oz 9.3% ABV bottle, multiple pours into 12 oz snifter. Pitch black pour, off tan puffy head, light tan lacing. Malt, slight roast coffee aroma. Strong cappuccino taste, slight malt. Balanced, not sweet or harsh. Medium body, slightly creamy texture, carbonation holds well. ABV sneaks up on you. Overall very good offering.
