Sampled this on a nitro tap

Pours a brownish copper with a thin layer of head. The nose has distinct notes of dark roasted coffee. The flavor is dominated by notes of roasted coffee with cream. The mouthfeel is smooth and creamy.

My only complaint would be that the coffee essence is so strong that it is impossible to discern the remaining flavor qualities in this offering.

Their Bankers Brown Ale brewed with COSMA cooperative coffee from Marcala, Honduras and served on nitro.

Dark brown color with a thin, creamy-looking French vanilla head. Best coffee aroma I've ever smelled in a beer -- dark roasted, yet creamy, almost like a dark-roasted coffee frappe. This continues to the taste -- delicious dark roasted coffee with a creamy sweetness behind. A little thin bodied, but definitely to style, with a strong creaminess on nitro.

In my opinion, the brown ale doesn't really hold up to the nitro treatment. Wish this was a stout, because the coffee they used is phenomenal. This is a winner nonetheless.
