She's back! What’s better than one shot of espresso? Two shots of espresso! This edition of our favorite coffee infused stout utilizes buckets of Red Barn Coffee Roaster’s Sumatra Mandheling. The Mandheling’s deep cocoa flavors open up to reveal a richly complex treat. We taste flavors of , chocolate covered espresso beans, molasses, milk chocolate, and touches of sweet brown sugar. A pungent & decadent bean for sure! A rich, sweet, and less roasty base beer contributes the ideal backdrop to this bold and vibrant treat for the coffee and beer lover alike! We find this to easily be the most intense and potent Double Shot yet. A true coffee lover’s delight!

32 oz flip top growler was poured into a nonic glass.

Appearance: A two finger mocha head was poured that reduced to a puffy layer. It is a pitch black color with no vision of anything. Frothy lacing down the glass as the beer was drank.

Smell: Roasted coffee, earthy, milk chocolate, caramel, smoke, toffee, oats, and toasted malts.

Taste: Same as above. Nice roasted coffee flavor is dominant and blends well with everything else. Some chewy and bitterness notes in the rear.

Mouthfeel: Smooth, medium to full bodied, creamy, silky, roasted, light coffee acidity, a little chewy, low to medium carbonation, some bitterness, and extremely drinkable.

Overall: Second time around in the Double Shot series fir me. I like this one more than the first.

I didn't get a whole lot of difference between this one and the regular Double Shot, but that's okay because the standard DS is one of my favorite stouts ever. Keep the variants coming, as long as it means more Double Shot!
