Keg at Beer Run. Pours dark brown with a large creamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, spice, milk, nuts. The taste is roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruits, lactose. Medium bodied, low carbonation, lingering bitterness.

Poured from a 22 oz bottle courtesy of Zach. Aroma is rather coffee forward with a nice moderately strong dark chocolate note as well. Some light roast and hints of dark fruit are also present. Pours a very dark brown, almost black with a fairly thick mocha head that slowly recedes to the edges. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is moderately sweet with a lot of dark chocolate. Some lactose character in the finish as well with moderate bitterness. Medium light coffee character; definitely less strong than in the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty nice beer. Nice chocolate notes with a light coffee flavor and moderate aroma. I expected it to be a bit thicker, but the lactose does add a bit of complexity in the finish.

French roast coffee nose. Black, thin tan head. Lightly sweet coffee, raisin, with a baker’s chocolate finish. Medium body. Good beer, but not much of an improvement over the already good Moo Hoo.

Bottle shared at our Christmas tasting. Pours dark brown color with tan head. Aromas of coffee, chocolate, and lightly roasted malts. Sweet milk chocolate and coffee flavors with roasted malts. Medium body with moderate carbonation and a creamy mouthfeel. Good but expensive for what it is.

Bottle thanks to Phil. Pours a dark brown with small beige head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong roast, coffee, cinnamon, vanilla. Thin mouth with light maple, strong cinnamon, roast, good.

4 oz draft pour at ChurchKey. Black with tan head. Aromas of bitter roast, coffee/espresso, caramel and vanilla. Tastes fo caramel, coffee/espresso, dark chocolate. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Like a caramelly dessert coffee, tasty.
