Sampled from a can this beer poured a hazy gold color with a medium sized foamy off white head that left no lacing. The aroma was chocolate, wood, must, dust and cardamom. The flavor was dusty, musty and bready with coffee and cardamom. Medium length finish. Medium body.

Can. A- Coffee, earthy, acidic. A- Yellow color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Coffee, earthy, roasty, mild cream. P- Light body, average texture, medium carbonation, roasty finish. O- I've had a few coffee blondes now and this one is more on the let down side. Lots of earthy coffee with a mild vanilla and citric acid bit on the end.

12 oz bottle from a grocery store in upper Michigan. Aroma is coffee, skunk, vanilla, cocoa. Pours slightly hazy golden with a medium white head with decent retention. Taste is lightly sweet with flavors of coffee, green bell pepper, lotion. Finishes with a light dry bitterness. Interesting and tasty; the off notes are easy to look past.

Can. Looks like a blonde ale but the first taste is chocolaty coffee, so odd. Yas, if I closed my eyes I would be imagining a black chocolate flavored stout. So, light a few candles, turn down the lights and put on some easy listening music and then enjoy the chocolate this beer has to offer, you need not look at the color of the beer.

Clear golden and light copper coloured body with a nice, thick and soapy head, about five centimetres tall, off-white in colour. Aroma of coffee, cardboard, malt, vanilla, a touch of alcohol and a ton more coffee - very nice and incredibly fragrant. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive deep coffee flavours with touches of chocolate, spice and a lot of grassy and herbal malts and a little hop kick noticeable near the end. Aftertaste shows the coffee, chocolate and hints of roast with a little bitterness from the hops playing out. Overall, a nice and incredibly complex coffee flavour for such a light beer without any roasting of the malt here - deep and strong, while still being lightish and easy enough to drink in the summer. Good to try if you can find it and/or lug it back home! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 25-July-2015 for US$1,99 sampled at home in Washington on 21-May-2017.

Sample at Bridge Street Tap Room. This beer pours a clear pale golden color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Short stringy lacing. Roast coffee, malt and hops in the nose. Light-bodied with a roasty coffee and malt character, with slight hops in the background. The finish is vanilla coffee and malt. Decent overall.
