Tap at Pyramid Scheme. Slight hazy light golden with white head. Soft malts, quite some vanilla, light roasted coffee touch, fresh grain and bread crust. Light sweet and bitter. Medium bodied. Bit too much vanilla and coffee maybe, a bit one dimensional.

12oz tulip at HopCat Detroit pours a clear gold lacing white head. Nose is nice with coffee and cream, candlewax, vanilla. Flavor is sweet with coffee and cream, some corn, floral, vanilla. Dry finish. So drinkable.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL, enjoyed on the night of Super Tuesday....gonna be a long one! Appearance is a brownish yellow with a carbonated white head that dissipates relatively quickly. Aroma is a unique mixture of caramel, coffee, vanilla, smells nice. Taste is really really good, vanilla and coffee come out great and this has a relatively light profile, not heavy. Good stuff here!

Just the right mount of coffee. Really works in this light gold. Pours golden with decent head. Light crisp finish. Bottle.

Poured from a bottle. Aroma is fairly sweet with a cream-like aroma with some light grain notes. An off vegetable note which I assume is the coffee. Some light vanilla. Pours a somewhat clear, gold with a small, moderately thick, white head that recedes fairly quickly to the edges where a thin film lingers. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is sweet, but less than I was expecting from the aroma. Some light grain notes. Moderate creamer-like sweet notes with some vanilla present. The weird vegetable note from the aroma isn’t here, but there also isn’t really any coffee. As it warms some light coffee appears, but it really tastes like beer with some vanilla flavored creamer. Medium light bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Light astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, another not great beer from this brewery. It’s really weird as the coffee character is rather faint, but the other flavors and aromas are very pronounced.

Bottle. Milky coffee and toffee malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with small head. Sweet creamy coffee, caramel malt and lightly bitter citrus peel flavor. Nice body and blending. Very tasty.
