Draft: Poured a deep black color stout with a large light brown foamy head. Aroma of nice floral coffee notes with some light roasted malt notes. Taste is one of the best floral coffee notes with light bitter notes, some roasted malt and light lactose notes are also discernable. Boyd is smooth with nice creamy texture and great carbonation. Incredible well balance and very easy to drink – probably one of the best coffee stout I have tried in my life.

42nd Floor Tasting. Thanks to Matteo. Almost clear dark brown beer, thin tan head. Palate is light, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Trace of malt cream. Loads of fresh earthy coffee, like a cole espresso. Trace of malt sweetness. Light earthy coffee finish. Very coffee one dimensional but it a tasty number.

Bottle shared in London on the 42nd floor - many thanks to Matteo for this one. Pours deep brown-black with a thick, frothy khaki head. Strong earthy coffee in the nose, espresso, baking cocoa. Light to medium sweet flavor with robust coffee character, bitter scorched earth, hearty baking cocoa. Full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Earthy finish, lightly warming, with more dark espresso, charred wood. The coffee character is profound.

22oz bomber. Deep brown black body, looks unfiltered. Manages to be doughy and coffee forward at the same time. Doesn’t come off with much malt depth for the ABV, maybe a little sugared up. Mellow and really clean either way. Not much hop bite at all, but really sweet specialty malt tones, almost cacao tone. Pretty excellent.
