Can. Very dark brown, almost black with a very small head. Mocha and caramel aromas and flavovos. Taste a tad more hoppy than most stouts.

Lovely coffee stout.

On tap at Abita, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out dry toasted malt and crusty dry bready. Flavour is dry, with a nice toasted malt character, dry cocoa, bready malt and a pronounced bitter finish. Dry and hearty, with a nice bitter finish. Good stuff.

My first adventure with NOLA, I hope it goes well. I prefer the depth of imperial stouts but a good stout is always appreciated. This 16 oz can out of a four pack goes into my New Belgium snifter, classic black with a mahogany head that descends to a full skim. A fine scent, dark chocolate, syrup and a suggestion of berries. The taste goes a different direction, ash, black licorice, malt, semi sweet chocolate and earth. Nicely thick for a stout. Decent.

Delicious straightforward stout, heavy on the smoky char notes and a deep-but-not-indulgent dark chocolate backbone. Slight coffee cherry acidity leads to a dry, extra-dark-roast bitterness on the fade. Lovely roasted nose, and the pour is a deep black-brown with a tan head and good lacing. Damn fine stout.
