Pours black, tanned head fades fast. Scent is overwhelmingly coffee forward. Green and herbal, spicy coffee. Taste is rather harsh, roasty, burnt, bit ashy. Far less coffee than expected, but still quite clear on the coffee. Manageable levels and style though. The low ABV means that - as is to be expected- this is not a thick, robust stout. Its ment for easy drinking, and works quite well for that. Medium czrbonation levels, and overall intensity isnt to high, but at least its interesting and more flavorfull than guiness or alternatives . Decent, though i obviously prefer the heavier ones. For what it is, whzt more can you ask though? Decently bitter, too.

Black with thin creamy head. Aroma and flavour have loads of coffee. There's also a green pea note that seems weird but doesn't dominate. Silky texture. Good.

440ml can. Opaque, darkest brown colour with average to huge, frothy, slightly osteoporosing and slowly diminishing, moderately lacing, beige head. Roasty coffee aroma, notes of freshly roasted coffee beans, mocha, widely disguised, roasty and minimally chocolately, dark malty background, a touch of coffee flavoured dark chocolate. Taste is mildy bitter, roasty dark malty, slightly chocolately, dark malty, notes of mocha, dark chocolate, freshly roasted coffee beans, hints of coffee flavoured chocolate, some residual sweetness, very subtle coffee tartness. Oily-creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy palate, fine, soft carbonation. Excellent coffee flavours, good balance, could even be better off with a slightly more solid body - that shit was tight.
