Hacienda Beer Co.

Poured into shaker pint. Syrupy black body and a khaki head that stays for quite a bit.

Nse is vanilla and faint roast.

Taste is lactic creamy with bitter chocolate roast, plus a generous but not excessive cinnamon wrap. Sweetens as it warms.

Smooth but chewy mouth.

Cinnamon and stout go together well. This is my first Hacienda brew, and I'm curious to see what else they're up to.

 

 

 

Poured 16oz can into snifter. Dark coffee brown with a 2 finger tan head. The aroma is a sweet stout, with notes of vanilla, caramel and cream. The coffee is more subdued but the cinnamon is apparent in the aromas. The flavor is a smooth milk stout that brings out the cinnamon flavor. Some light (non bitter) coffee notes and some vanilla, caramel and toffee. The cinnamon shines in this beer! Feel is smooth, but lighter and decent carbonation. I thoroughly enjoyed how this turned out.

Picked up in a trade.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice dark brown almost black with s thin mocha head that fades to leave light wisps.

S - Big aromas of cinnamon and vanilla, good chocolate notes. Pleasant sweetness.

T - Taste is similar to the nose with nice vanilla and and cinnamon . Good chocolate. Nice sweetness.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, little creamy.

O - Overall this was a rather solid stout the cinnamon was quite pleasant here.

Big creamy frothy creamy 1/2 finger head a little lacing, decent legs, just about pitch black beer

Nose quite nutty, some espresso and rich chocolate, mild roasted coffee, caramel notes, big nutty and mild roast, mild creamy milk lactose like, hint of milk chocolate and cocoa, milk chocolate lactose, little burnt coffee creme brulee, just a touch of cinnamon

Taste mild sweetness, fair coffee, rich fresh coffee and a fair nutty flavor, nutty coffee and nutty general, some coconut too, cinnamon and vanilla icing, a touch creamy, lush, a bit of burnt coffee and burnt lactose, mild cinnamon, actually cinnamon increases as it goes, mild caramel as well, drier finish, fair bitterness

Mouth is med to fuller bod a bit thicker, decent carb, a touch of alcohol

Overall not bad, better than I expected, fairly enjoyable, gets better as it warms

16oz can, snifter glass. Cola brown body, one finger offwhite head, fair retention and no lacing. Smell is cinnamon, espresso, a bit of roast, light milk chocolate, lactose, pumpernickel. Flavour follows, a solid dose of cinnamon combined with the espresso flavours balances out, milk chocolate, lactose, nothing too complicated but a nice cinnamon coffee cake, essentially. Medium body, good carbonation, soft, easy to drink.
