On a pilgrimmage for immortal craft beer we tripped on these heavenly coffee beans -- threw them in and created damn good aromas, a thick fudge-like body, pitch black color and obviously only made it in limited amounts. And the taste.... furthermore Jesus!

Aroma has coffee and slightly salty licorice. Flavour has salty licorice, herbal tones, some coffee and mild ashy notes. Rather oily palate, feels sticky on the first sip. Contains some balancing and non-disturbing alcohol. At the end of the glass chocolate and spiciness occurs. Too salty to be excellent but nice anyway.

Bottle share at Leighton’s Stratoflat. Thanks to Scopey. Opaque dark brown beer, good tan head. A spicy coffee nose. Palate is airy and semi dry with decent fine carbonation. Dry dark malts. Coffee. Mild spice. Trace of milky sweetness. More spice before a semi dry finish. Decent but I was not as enamoured as others.

Bottle courtesy of winter santa 14/15. Thank you RobertDale! Pours pitch black with a rather big creamy dark mocha head that leaves a small trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty and roasty with roasted malts, burnt caramel, burnt cereal, dark roast coffee, cocoa powder, salty liquorice hard candy, dried cranberries, burnt wood and alcohol. Taste is sweet, bitter, malty and roasty with roasted malts, burnt caramel, burnt cereal, liquorice fudge, toffee, burnt wood, espresso coffee, bitter chocolate, raisins, roasted bell peppers, moist soil, minerals and alcohol. Mouthfeel is fat, velvety, round, roasted astringent, slightly boozy and full bodied. Finish is sweet and bitter with roasted malts, burnt caramel, toffee, liquorice fudge, espresso coffee, bitter chocolate, burnt wood, minerals and alcohol. Great big roasty coffee stout. Almost knocks you off your feet with the roast but once your senses have adapted a great imperial stout is revealed. --- Beer merged from original tick of Aún Más Café Jesús on 19 Jan 2015 at 01:26 - Score: 9.

Pours dark murky brown into a snifter. Mocha head with little retention recedes to hug rim. Vanilla and espresso aromas. Medium bodied with dry oak and hot chocolate turning full in the lasting espresso finish.

330 ml bottle into snifter; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours super dense pitch black color with a 2 finger dense dark brown head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a small cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big dark roasted coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa, fudge, vanilla, molasses, dark bread, licorice, raisin, plum, light char/smoke, and roast/smokey earthiness. Incredible aromas with awesome complexity and balance of coffee and dark/roasted malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big dark roasted coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa, fudge, vanilla, molasses, dark bread, licorice, raisin, plum, light char/smoke, and roast/smokey earthiness. Good amount of roast/coffee bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa, fudge, vanilla, molasses, dark bread, licorice, light char, and roast/smokey earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of big coffee and dark/roasted malt flavors; with a great roasted bitterness/sweetness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and very full bodied; with a very smooth, creamy, and moderately slick/chalky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with only a light warming present after the finish. Overall this is an incredible imperial coffee stout. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of big coffee and dark/roasted malt flavors; and very smooth to sip on for the big ABV. A highly enjoyable offering.
