    A lot of their other stuff has been disappointing, but I have to admit, these guys really did a nice job with this one.

    I've had it both on tap and from the can now. Nice and light, but very flavorful. The coffee is very smooth and melds well with the other roasted characteristics. Hard to find anything wrong it. A great beer for this time of year. Maybe the best Louisiana-brewed beer on the shelves right now, especially at $9 a six-pack. Bonus points for the kick-ass can design.

    What do y'all think?

    Easily their best offering IMO. However I do get a sixer of both their blonde and perfect tin for LSU games because it's local, easy drinking, AND its in purple and gold cans. You can't go wrong.

    The release of these cans couldn't have come sooner! Been gearing up for this beer for a long time and it's just as great as I recalled. Will definitely be missed when it's gone.

    Was also pumped for this release and it didn't disappoint! Almost done with my first six pack, and it will be the first of many.

    Just wondering, but how much is a 6er on the north shore? Steins seems a bit pricey at 10.99

    This has become my go-to everyday drinking beer. Finally a well above average local 4/6 Pack

    Agree with the sentiment in this thread. All of Tin Roof's other beers are lame but this one was decent. Not as good as Abita Macchiato Espresso Stout or Crooked Letter Mystery Romp but still a step up from their regular stuff.
