On tap, Pies and Pints, Morgantown, WV.
Smoke, COFFEE, and vegetal aromas. So rich and complex in around and then....
A punch in the face of flavors and smokiness!. Did I mention coffee? Almost syrupy in the mouth, booze forward. Sweet maple and pecan come through as well!

This is a very sneaky 9.4%. It's such a smooth blend of coffee and chocolate notes. Really enjoyed and would love to find it again. Had it in winter and can't think of a better time to be drinking such a great beer

Dark black stout with moderate head. Aroma is coffee and chocolate with a hint of alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium bodied but smooth. Taste is traditional stout with good notes of chocolate and coffee. A nice smooth finish. Overall a very good beer.

Picked up a sixer from TW-Greenville, SC on 11-16-22 for $11.49. No canning date; consumed can #4 1-23-22.
Beer pour dark brown with a beautiful nitro like mocha head that has some nice hang time.
Nose has hints of coffee and mildly roasted malts.
Taste is a mildly roasted malt base with the coffee adjunct blended it subtlety. Finishes with a touch of cream and is well balanced with no sign of coffee astringency.
Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and smooth.
Overall a really nice job of incorporating the coffee adjunct. Can see my self picking this up a few times a year!

Relatively short lived head with almost no lacing. This smells better than it delivers. Appreciating coffee is the first listed description, but the oatmeal factor is almost missing. The lingering taste becomes bitter and the feel is way short of velvety expected with a stout, maybe because of the high ABV.

Pours black with a medium khaki head. Scent is strongly dominated by coffee with some chocolate notes present. Taste follows, right to the edge of getting too bitter. Full mouthfeel and an aftertaste that is expected based on the scent and taste

Appearance:
Glacé blackness so absolute it practically absorbs the light around it. Mocha froth culminates into an abundant head that laces deeply but deflates rapidly.
Bouquet:
Homemade brownies soaked in black coffee to the point of dissolving; deep beneath that rich concoction is a slender stratum of barley and raw oats.
Feel:
A creamy cascade of velvety stout whirls about the tongue with a long-lingering mousse softness. Has a dry, earthy finish.
Taste:
A robust burst of dark chocolate syrup, followed closely by smoked oats. The midpoint exhibits spicy Arabic coffee with a sprinkling of shaved cocoa nibs stirred in. Its conclusion is a hyper-fast film reel of caramel malts and vanilla bean paste, abruptly cut by a sharp, chocolatey espresso finale.
Overall:
Marvelous. The 9.4% ABV is thoroughly cloaked under a rich deluge of dark flavors.

pours pitch black with atight khaki heady. No light getting through.Smells of subdued coffee with some chocolate and a tiny bit of char. Taste follows the nose well, coffee is a little subdued but faint flavors of chocolate come in ithe some bitterness. mouthfeels is nice and smooth with a slick feel. overall a top oatmeal stout in my book.
