A Jedi prophecy foretells that the Chosen One from Florida will bring balance to beer by choking out punk ass gangsta rappers… but sometimes this path leads to the darkside. Fortunately, there is a thiicccc Life After Death Star. Featuring a long boil to create our thickest and most decadent base yet, we added shredded raw coconut, marshmallow, vanilla, and Ghost Bear Espresso Blend coffee from the newly crowned Microroaster of the year, Mostra Coffee, along with a touch of lactose.
Life After Death Star pours a viscous jet black and develops a caramel head upon pouring releasing an olfactory onslaught of beautifully balanced notes of espresso coffee paired with flavors of big fudgy creamy marshmallow, just scrapped vanilla, brownie batter, and light coconut throughout. This beer is extremely smooth, luxurious, and creamy. You may actually try and chew it. No question this is the biggest and best stout to come out of Middletown yet.

Lovely evening sipper.
Could be to much with a bottle alone. Perfect for sharing or keep for the next days.
Thick engine oil.
Tad sweet.
Dark malt, vanilla, oak, toffee, some spices and chocolate

Pours a thick, dark, oily cola-black, with small tan head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, coconut, vanilla. Flavors follow, with a lot of sweet coconut. Soft, smooth mouthfeel. ABV is well-hidden in both aroma and flavor.
Chocolate, vanilla, creamy, delicious.

Pastrytown. Pours black. Toffee, coconut, coffee, vanilla, milk chocolate, peanut. Good body. Really nice.
Marshmallow, coconut, coffee. Death Star got blown up! Can see why this sold out quickly.
LCI, coffee comes out more on this than B1, less marshmallow, but still fantastic.
