Pours out of the can a slightly opaque pale orange with a solid finger head with pretty decent retention. Smells like coffee of course, and the flavor follows. Very well executed and just what I was hoping for.

Definitely a sweet coffee flavor. Bready and full feeling. I enjoyed it as something new to try but I probably won’t get it again as I’m not huge on coffee flavors which this has a lot of.

Slightly hazy gold with fast dissipating head. Not much lacing. Aroma of the bread crust and coffee. flavor is slight sweetness but more bitter than sweet. Notes of hay, herbs, coffee. Mouthfeel is medium with medium carbonation. Overall, I would drink this again. I think it's kind of different and kind of interesting. I'm finding that the more I drink it the more I like it.

16oz pour at J.L beers off 35 dubya

Looks like a light ale, yellow-orange, nice cap and lacing. Taste and scent is all coffee beans. More than a hint of vanilla and a lot of cloying sweetness that accompanies it. Highly carbonated for what it is.

Goes down easy and provides a hit of caffeine to propel you past your lunch break
