5oz pour at the main Stone brewery on Easter Monday, 6th April 2026. Heavy day walking around the San Diego Safari Park in the heat, eight 5oz pours helped to take the pressure off my feet, this being one of the last to be drank. Clean golden body, white crown on top. Coffee like nose, some chocolate too, taste a strange combination of flavours, the afore mentioned coffee and chocolate, but with a lactose slickness and a slight sweetness, different for sure.

From a can at a RateBeer tasting. Pours a slightly hazy gold with an off white head. Aromas are coffee and candy canes. Flavors are mostly sweet with a bitter finish.

Poured a clear light golden color, with a large, fluffy white head. Aroma was light coffee, light green pepper. Creamy, coffee, light nondescript berry. Just fine.

Can courtesy of Barba and Elena, enormous thanks! Hazy golden body, off-white head. Dried figs, coffee and vanilla in the aroma, or something very similar. The taste hit me with what I thought was maple at first, though it shouldn't be having it, coffee, vanilla, nutty and spicy, ending bitterish. Tasty enough, weird and unique enough. It's a gimmick, but a fun one taste-wise.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream head. Big coffee aroma with light lactose and light fruitiness. Big coffee flavor with berries and light lactose. Medium bodied. Big coffee and berries linger with light earthiness.
