A Horchata style milk stout brewed with a variety of roasted malts and coffee. It pours dark black with a thick creamy mocha head. The oats and lactose provide a silky rich mouth feel, which is balanced with strong aromatics of coffee. The beer is conditioned on cinnamon and vanilla beans, which provide a unique spice character that pairs perfectly with the strong coffee and chocolate flavours.

5oz pour at brewery. Pours nearly black with beige head. Aroma has tons of toasty coffee and wafers. Flavour has a ton of roasty malts, chocolate, coffee, and wafers. Mouthfeel is appropriately thick. Very solid.

Definitely and horchata vibe here. Not sure it comes together super well as a beer. Black pour with great mocha head and lacing. Bitter finish with some sweetness. Milk and some white rice. Roast and coffee. Ok, but gimmick overrides the drinkability a little here. Tap at Curious Cafe.

Poured from 473mL nitro can (pkg 08/15/21). Very dark brown with beige foam head. Lots of drip coffee and lactose with hints of vanilla, light roast, not getting any cinnamon. Decent.

Rich and thick. Nicely roasty and nice gentle sweetness. Other flavours are subtle to invisible, but the whole thing is a really nice beverage.

473ml can. Pours an opaque dark brown, almost black with amber edges and a medium, creamy, short lived, brown head that leaves spotty lacing. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, ash and vanilla. Sweet flavour of grainy caramel malt, dark chocolate, lactose, vanilla and a hint of cinnamon in a dry, mild bitter, coffee finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Very tasty, well made.

Smells of good sweet coffee with soft hints of roasted barley. Has a soft brown body with no white foam. Flavour is big sweet dark coffee, tonnes of sugar and molasses notes. Very big and heavy. Mouthfeel is crisp and full. This is okay but overbearing and unbalanced.

On draft at Craft Bierhaus in Revelstoke, BC. Pours a clear dark cola with a tan head. Aroma of coffee and hazelnuts. Flavors are mild bitter roast coffee, with a lingering bitter roast finish. Very tasty.

Canette 473ml, gracieuseté de BeerManCam lors du CanBIF Fall 2017, Thanks Cameron! Couleur noire opaque, mousse moka fugace. Arôme de café, cendre, sucré. Goût de café, malt torréfié, café mexicain en moins sucré, cannelle, cendré. Carbonatation faible, corps moyen-dense.

Can: Poured a deep cloudy brown color ale with a nice light brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of coffee notes with vanilla and cinnamon notes is quite enticing. Taste is a mix of floral coffee notes with vanilla and cinnamon notes with lactose notes to balance flavours. Body is full for style with good carbonation. Super enjoyable stout with just the right amount of adjunct.
