12 oz. can poured into a pint glass with a dark brown, almost black color and quickly disappearing tan head. Smells of strawberry, coffee, malt, vanilla. Taste is malt with artificial strawberry flavor, vanilla, some cocoa and very little coffee. Medium bodied with good carbonation and semi-dry finish. Overall, it's malty, but too sweet and artificial tasting to me.

I got a 6pck of cans of this beer from my local meijer store. It poured an opaque dark with thin tan ring head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had coffee, cocoa and berry notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink coffee and berry presence with subtle chocolate highlights. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with fizzy carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Had it at LOCOBA,
it is an interesting flavor profile but crossing the line for me.
Tastes somewhat artificial with bitter finish that is not complementing the overall taste.

Clear dark brown with a short khaki head dying to a thin ring.
Like Flintstones vitamins dissolved in a glass of coffee Coke, it's medicinal red fruit delivered via a fluid cola thinness that comes to a surprisingly semi-bitter, light tobacco exhale.
It's got a medium-light body otherwise, with a softly fine carbonation, and finishes semi-dry.

Not a bad experimental hits all the notes berry jam like sweetness, roast coffee and a good bit of chocolate but not much cheesecake maybe some vanilla but doesn't really speak the dessert. In fact so much chocolate I am not getting much actual coffee either even though the can boasts "Bones Coffee"
Worth a try though for that chocolate strawberry flavor!

Collaboration with Bones Coffee Company. Canned on 10/12/21. 12oz can poured into a tulip.
Pours almost black; fluffy khaki head that fades leaving nice retention and sticky lacing.
The aromas have strawberry leading the way. Some raspberry as well. Some cocoa and vanilla. Malts are there.
The flavors follow the nose. More strawberry and raspberry. More cocoa and chocolate. More vanilla in the mix. Some cream cheese in the finish. The coffee is pretty mild and basically goes unnoticed. Solid bitterness. It's really not as sweet as you might think. Malts do their thing. Alcohol goes unnoticed.
Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with moderate carbonation. It's fluffy, creamy, velvety and smooth.
This is a decent brew. It definitely has a strawberry cheesecake vibe, but the strawberry comes off as very artificial.
