Brewhouse Coffee Stout
Central Waters Brewing Co.

12oz can into a pint glass. Canned 11/2/20, so 2 years old.

Looks decent enough. Darkest brown body, small white head shrinks to a ring. No lacing. Some tiny dark floaties.

Nice smooth coffee aroma.

On tasting, the coffee flavor is still excellent after 2 years. Smooth, rich, warming. No roast at all.

Mouth between medium and full, finish coffee and some warming.

Overall, glad to have risked this one, coffee has either not faded much, or was phenomenal fresh. Kinda one dimensional, but a dimension I'm happy to be in right now.

Pours a black-brown with a three-finger yeasty head of foam. Aroma is strongly coffee. Taste is dry, with roasted malt and coffee dominant. There is a slight bitter finish, with profiles of roasted malt and coffee that linger for a long time. More coffee than stout here. Standard issue coffee stout.

A - Pours out mostly opaque, a brown-black body with just a hint of red in the translucent edges, light tan head, wispy cap, and small bubble fine-lined lacing.

S - Pungent nose of coffee, bright and full, with some malty sweet notes beneath, toasty dark bread and a hint of molasses.

T - Follows the nose, but with the malt most forward, and the coffee underneath, and molasses and subtle sweetness through the middle that fades to some acidity and toasty bitterness in the finish.

M - Brisk open, well carbonated, and fairly light weight, a bit of stickiness suggested but disappearing quickly through the close.

O - Exceptionally tasty coffee stout here. It has been on my list to try for years, and I finally saw it fresh on the shelf and glad I did. Delicious.

 

 

 

I picked up a sixer of cans when I visited the Milwaukee CW taproom last October. This is a fantastic straightforward coffee stout: fresh roasted medium-dark coffee, dark roasted malts, hint of vanilla and chocolate, touch of earthy hops. Well-balanced, not boozy, not too sweet (or sour like some coffee beers). Excellent stuff!

 

 

This is a black, oily-looking brew with a diminutive tan head. Wonderful toasted grain aromas in the nose. Dark-roasted coffee and bittersweet chocolate flavors dominate the palate. Creamy in texture. I look forward to having it again.

Pours a clear dark brown with a massive tan head that leaves nice lacing as it falls away. Aroma is fresh roasted coffee. Flavor is coffee forward, with dark roasted malt. Feel is medium bodied with ample carbonation. Overall, this is delicious. Enuf said.

 

 

 

 

Closing out the last days of winter with this tasty coffee stout. Hits on all points, nice cold brew coffee influence, delicious taste and smell, and abv well hidden. Killer deal at $10 for 6.

 

12oz can

Clear cola color, the scent is boozy and distant, lots of coffee bean. Taste is so good, I'm not even a huge fan of these coffee stouts, but this is just done damn well. The hops and the dark grains and the coffee all meld into one flavor, I wasted one of these on a roast and regret it. World-class
