This export strength stout features the coffee of the new Calico Coffee Company. Thunderhead Brewing won the first World Beer Cup gold medal awarded for coffee beer. As we grew we had a had time getting the hot espresso shots in sufficient quantities. Thanks to Calico, Espresso Stout is back!

5oz: a dark brown beer with an off-white head that leaves a few spots; dark pretzel and espresso stand out from the classic roast malt; taste is not as roasty, but the coffee makes up for this; a bit of of coffee porter with some aspects that remind me of a robust brown ale.

This is a nice beer with a great flavor. Espresso beans and roast mixed well too give an assertive roast flavor profile. Hopping supports. Body is a little watery - holding it back from being a great beer.
