A: Looks amazing. Pours super dark brown/black with a nice beige head. Head is fluffy and creamy and has really good retention.
S: Nice stout smell: chocolate, vanilla, smoke and light mineral notes. The coffee notes are very strong and I suppose they used an espresso roast for this. From the coffee you get caramel, coffee (d'uh) and some dark berries note and maybe some very ripe apples.
T: Taste is very solid. There is a good amount of vanilla, sweet chocolate and mixes very well with the coffee notes. From the coffee, you get roasted notes, caramel apples and very ripe blueberries. It's well balanced and very drinkable.
M: Carbonation is very good for this beer. It's medium and slightly sting-y in feel. But, the body is a bit too light for the taste notes and feels a bit sticky because of the amount of residual sugars.
O: This is a very solid beer. At its current low cost, it's an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a lower ABV stout that can hold its own.

Can: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a brown foamy head with OK retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with light floral coffee notes with light residuals sugar notes is quite enjoyable. Taste is a nice mix of floral coffee notes with some roasted malt and light black chocolate with some lactose notes rounding off flavours. Body is about average with good carbonation. Well brewed with good drinkability.

A:
Pours a thick black with a billowing cinnamon head that settles at a half inch then a film. Good retention; sticky lacing. (4)
S:
Coffee made with hard water. (3.75)
T:
Coffee, nuts, cocoa, minerals. (4)
M:
Relatively thin body with medium carbonation and a quick finish. (3.75)
O:
A nice, light stout that really captures the flavor of black coffee.
On the one hand it has a very clean, clear coffee taste. On the other it is a tiny bit one dimensional in that respect. Looks nice. Drinkable.
I'd have it again, though it might be a touch expensive for what it is. (3.75)
