Wet Dream
Evil Twin Brewing

Copenhagen 5/5 2019. 47,3 cl can from Voldby Købmandsgård (web-shop). Evil Twins characteristic triangular design in light blue. Marketed as your wildest desires in a can.

Pours almost clear dark brown with a red hue. Small off-white head. Settles as 0,3 cm thick layer just covering the surface of the beer. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is balanced between a light roasted sweetness and a sharp bitterness. Caramel, brown sugar, wood. Mingling with sharp citrus and bitter coffee.

Light carbonation. Medium thick, soft, creamy texture.

Flavor is lightly sweet followed by a strong bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter coffee. Lingering. Semi-dry finish.

Very nice Brown Ale making most of the coffee.

 

Review 1518
I only bought this beer because of the name. I did not know the beer was or if it was good. After reading the label the other day I learned it is a brown ale with coffee. The beer is 44 degrees and served in a pint glass. After I opened the can, a faint coffee emitted. The pour of the beer created a lovely three-fingered light tan head. The Airy, creamy, and foamy head left a lot of lacing on the glass. The retention is exceptional for a brown ale. The color of the beer is SRM 18, amber-brown with mahogany hues. The beer has some clarity.

Espresso and dark roasted malts just smash your nostrils. Next, I smell toffee, caramel, a hint of smoke. I get a faint floral and phenolic aroma somewhere deep within. It is hard to get much more the coffee aromas are strong.

The coffee is also strong on the palate. I get more flavors than I did with aromas. I taste herbal kind of like bay leaves, I get toffee, phenolic, pharmaceutical, smoke, Maillard, and dark roasted malts. An acrid burnt taste at the end of the beer and makes it unappealing.

The mouthfeel of the beer is creamy and dry.

The body of the beer is medium, medium carbonation, and medium finish.

The only reason the finish is that high is because of the coffee. The brown ale is solid but sadly the coffee is overpowering. I love coffee and this is too much in a beer. I do not like how the beer finishes with this bitter unappetizing flavor.

 

 

16 oz can from Hops & Bottles. Dark brown pour with fizzy beige head. Roast malts and coffee make up the aroma. Taste offers a nice toasty, maltyflavor, with the coffee adding subtle bitter notes. Very well balanced.

Canned spring 2016; drank 6/11/16 @ the Yarchives.

Semi-opaque brown/orange appearance.

A rough pour yielded a huge tan head; strong, frothy lace.

Caramel, light roast coffee bean & mild brown sugar notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Caramel & light roast coffee bean flavors up front; mild brown sugar bite on the finish.

A sessionable, flavorful coffee Brown; I found it enjoyable. I'd have another...

 

 

 

 

Form the tall boy can in a snifter. This interesting little brown ale pours
a dark mahogany tinged muddled brown with a fantastic head of tan
foam that settles to a thick ring and layer with excellent lacing. Nose of
heavy duty coffee and leather bound by char and dark roasted malts with
a hint of cream. Flavors mimic the nose with a cream and heavy coffee
note over a bed of light brown sugars and subtle light cream notes.
Nice mouth feel; medium full body, medium light carbonation, and a
dry coffee heavy finish.

Overall, a fantastic little brew that is light on the dimensions
but the dimensions that it does---it does well.

Cheers

 

A very solid coffee brown ale.

Can bottom reads ‘Batch #007’

Pours a deep, dark brown with a faint reddish hue topped with one finger of foamy beige head; great retention and walls of lacing paint the glass well.

Aroma of semi-bitter coffee, peppery spice, star anise, and green pepper heat, which grows progressively with the roasty coffee.

Taste of roasty malt almost immediately fades to peppery spice, with only the faintest hints of coffee appearing the rest of the way; not terribly enjoyable considering any evidence of a brown ale is mostly nonexistent.

Mouthfeel has a medium-full body with well-integrated carbonation; consistency across the palate, and smooth almost to the point of slickness; a bit of grit on the finish, even as it thins slightly.

Have to wonder if this was a bad batch or old can. The peppery notes began as a nicely integrated adjunct, but quickly got out-of-hand and never turned back; whether this was intentional or not, I can’t quite tell, but the end result suffered greatly because of it. Not unpalatable by general beer standards, but for what was expected, this falls majorly short.

 

 

 

 

Poured from 16oz can into bottle. Stamped on can bottom is 'Batch #003 15:26'.
Slightly cloudy, brown colored body. Khaki colored head settles to full cap, with bubbles around the edge. Some spots of lacing.
Coffee dominated aroma, with nutty notes and citrus rind.
Coffee is prevalent in the taste, with light citrus notes and anise spice. Coffee bitterness at the end. This is not a sweet beer.
Thin to medium mouth feel. Decent carbonation. Rather dry.
Coffee is very strong in this one. Solid brown ale, with a touch of citrus. Both the coffee and the citrus lead to a bitter finish. Almost requires a reminder that this is beer and not coffee.
