On tap at the brewpub. Okay cloudy orange body with minimal head. That usual awkward mix of sweet coffee and hop juice is on the nose. Flavour is coffee mixed with juicy hops as advertised but it comes off wrong, an awkward mix between coffee and hop that doesn't balance well. Dry finish at least. This isn't necessarily a bad example of the style but it just doesn't transcend into something interesting.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy golden colour. The coffee aroma is strong. Luckily the beer flavour is stronger, with a good malt base, mildly sweet, robust bitterness; if there are any hop qualities, they are muffled byt the moderate coffee flavour.
I don't see the point in coffee beers, but it's acceptable.

Piney with some green pepper. Clearish gold with a decent white head. Bitter, pine and some very light coffee. Odd as expected.
