On tap 4/17/09.

A: Pitch black with a creamy off-white head that left excellent lacing.

S: Roasted malts and then very weak coffee. I was expecting more of an assertive coffee smell, but was disappointed.

T: Pretty weak in the taste department as well. It certainly wasn't bad, but I was going into this expecting coffee flavors along the lines of Peche Mortel, Founders Breakfast Stout, or Alesmith Speedway. Maybe I had too high of expectations.

M: Guinness-like. Rather thin and definitely not cloying.

D: The drinkability is very good. Light bodied and lower on alcohol, this is a session beer.

I was lucky enough to enjoy this beer at The Tap and also get a sample at the recent Beerfest in Boston.

This is (was) a very nice stout.

Borderline black in color with a thick sticky brown head. Huge amount of lacing.

A total coffee aroma that let the secret out that this is in fact a Coffee Stout. Nice roasted coffee flavor. And I love deep rich coffee and the aroma that comes with it.

A deep dark alluring flavor that was just great.

Very smooth and the finish was nice and certainly had a coffee quality.

You can certainly have this beer with a great dark chocolate dessert. Or just have the beer for dessert.

very good effort.
