CDGA Mocha Stout
Young Lion Brewing Company

Collaboration with The Lake House in Canandaigua, NY. Can purchased from The Rose Tavern at The Lake House.

This one pours a fairly dark black color, with a small head, and a bit of lacing.

This smells like creamy chocolate, sweet creamy coffee, some roasted malt and nuttiness, and some vanilla.

This is perhaps the best beer I’ve had so far from Young Lion – they are not a brewery that usually hits the right notes for me. The coffee used here is tasty, with a pleasant sweetness and some charred roastiness, along with vanilla, caramel, and chocolate flavors.

This is medium bodied, maybe a little bit thin, but pretty drinkable overall.

I enjoyed this much more than I figured I would.
