A nice light amber lager with a touch of Nicaraguan dark roast coffee from the amazing Idioma Coffee Roastery. Some caramel in the background helps to sweeten up the coffee.

Reddish amber color, carbonation bubbles are small, but plentiful. The head is 1 inch or so from a relatively vigorous pour, off-white, but it is short-lived. No lacing.
Nose is a bit musty, earthy. Dark coffee aroma.
Taste is also earthy. Roasted dark coffee flavors are obvious, but not overbearing. A moderate bitterness carries from the middle into the finish, and very mildly, into the aftertaste. The bitterness seems more like from coffee than from hops. Good malt base, nice earthy flavor, and the coffee adds to an interesting overall beer. The finish is dry. Nicely done.
The beer has a rather thin body, but that is expected for the style.
Overall, as with many of Lakeville Brewing's beers, well-brewed, no faults, and made for drinking at the pub with friends. I bought two, and I'm glad I did.
