Brewed with Inductus’ smooth medium blend, this stout layers in mild citrus acidity, a round, silky body, and a sweet chocolate finish. The coffee’s daily-drinker vibe gives the stout a balanced, approachable warmth—roasty, rich, and clean—while the chocolate notes and soft acidity keep it lively.
A cozy, easygoing stout with just enough depth to make you come back for more.

Canned 4/17/26. Pours an opaque brownish-black, with a spongy tan head. Nose is grainy and full of coffee. I notice they don't refer to it as an NA Stout or Porter, probably since they expected it wouldn't smell like one. Although as the foam subsides, some roasted malt comes in. The taste does come in with some coffee and stout. Mouthfeel is a little thin, but that's expected.

6 pack canned 2/2/26, most recent can drunk 4/14/26.
Smells slightly fruity, very earthy. Definitely on the dark side of a medium roast. But I've smelled worse. Not a ton of beer character, maybe a bit of caramel and bread. Low roast.
I've gone back and forth on this one. There's a lot of coffee which is moderately-well-done. There's a lot of sweetness which, on one hand, seems to somehow add body, and on the other, adds too much sweetness. Prickly carbonation, earthy, but creamy at least. Not overdone with roast or raw bean.
