Notes:
An Ethiopian varietal from our friends at Sey coffee imparts delicate, fruit-forward notes of cherry and stone fruit that pair harmoniously with the nutty, milk chocolate, and satisfyingly sweet caramelized flavors from the other adjuncts. Full bodied with a light yet lingering soft tannic finish.

I love this stout. The color is dark without a thick foamy head. It is sweet but smooth. You can taste the vanilla, coffee, chocolate notes but not too overbearing. At 12% it is easy to drink, not bitter. A good beer while relaxing, watching a movie or listening to mellow music.

4.68/5 rDev +9.9%

This was one of my favorite stouts all-time! It's not the densest, thickest, richest of all stouts, so if you're looking for a fudgy beer soup, this isn't it. But what it has in spades is balance. It's got great depth of aroma and flavor, and the coffee and brown sugar and vanilla really come through. And with a medium-heavy body, it's a super smooth-drinking stout. I liked Grimm's Double Negative stout, but this one was a step and a half above. Do yourself a favor and grab one of these if you find it.

Oh_Dark_Star from Washington
4.08/5 rDev -4.2%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
L: Oily crude with a short-lived head but forever ring of tan froth leaving spots of lace that slowly slink back in.
S: Mostly a meld of vanilla and almond stand out here. The touch of spirits out-do the coffee aroma.
T: The taste is more vanilla on roasted malts, booze, and an espresso note is present.
F: Medium body and a bit too syrupy for the weight IMO.
O: Something a little different but not a standout. This strikes me as integrated but still in a failed pastry stout category.
