How do you like your coffee? Try our delicious coffee stout and you'll never want your low-fat vanilla cream latte again. This might not contain a wonderful design in the foam, but it certainly will satisfy your need for a late evening coffee pick-me-up.

From a growler in a glass @ mwbbf
Yes. It is absolutely worth the hype. Over and over....
The pour is dark, thick and creamy... Like a cup of fresh coffee
Smell is rich maple, coffee, chocolate... Best smelling stout I've ever had. I love the smell of ba abraxas...but the maple in this beer makes you want to keep smelling it for ever.
Taste, oh the taste. Rich coffee, maple, chocolate, and some dark fruits... The alcohol is perfect! It's there but not in the way at all.
Mouth feel is smooth and creamy. Again... It's just hard to describe this beer.. It perfect in every way!
Mike (brewmastamike) you have created a master piece with this beer just like the rest of the beers you have created. From ipas to American stouts....keep up the work! And we will keep drinking your amazing beers!
Quality beer with quality people brewing it! Perfect beer! I don't see how this beer can be better but I guess if there is someone to top toppling Goliath, it will probably be themselves.

2023 vintage. 7.75 oz pour on tap for $13.50. Pours pitch black with a voluminous tan head. Aroma and flavor feature a TON of maple syrup, along with coffee, dark roasted malts, dark chocolate, vanilla, and bourbon. Sweet but not cloying. Definitely some alcohol heat which would probably become smoother with age. Obviously super glad to have tried this, but didn't quite live up to the hype for me. It's quite tasty but strikes me as a giant maple bomb first and foremost.

Pours as dark as it possibly be. Not much head to speak of. He knows has a chard smell to it. The taste is sweet with a caramel and likely maple flavor to it. Nice warm on the throat. Wow is all I can say.

Finally had this--one of USA's Holy Grail beers--at Henry's in Saratoga Springs, NY. Believe the hype! Jet black pour with a thin tan creamy head. Maple syrup and espresso nose. This beer glides down the hatch delivering maple sweetness, light chocolate which is then balanced with a slightly bitter coffee tannin finish. It's just flat-out brilliant. Grab one and don't let go.
