16oz @ SF shared with Brian and Phill.
Aroma: fruity, cinnamony, some sweetness.
Taste: along the same lines, roasty, chocolatey. A bit thicker than the rest due to milk sugars added.
Overall: good one.

Vrijwel zwarte body en een lichtbruine kraag met fijn schuim waar een dun laagje van overblijft. Geur is zoet, lactose, vanille, wat rood fruit. Retronasaal ook zoet, lactose, vanille, iets kaneel, wat kunstmatig. Smaak is vrij zoet, maar ook iets bitter, met licht fruit. Medium body, smooth mondgevoel. Warmende alcohol. Finish is toenemend bitter en geroosterd, hier komt de koffie ook (eindelijk) tevoorschijn.

From can. Roasty aroma with chocolate, milk sugar, coffee, caramel. Sweet flavour, mild bitter. Above medium body. Hmmm okay, but not a great Speedway.

Can at home shared with Laura. Opaque black color, full sized dense dark brown colored head. Aroma and flavor are malts, soft roasty, cocoa powder, sweetish vanilla and slightly bitter. A slight tea influence perhaps? Don't know but overall it's decent.

Almost black colour, moderate sized creamy brown head; aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, dairy milk, pecan, vanilla, some cinnamon, dried dark berries and slight ash notes; taste has similar notes to the aroma with some prune and raisins; amazing beer! Thanks so much for sharing, Kapusil!

Can from Beer Republic. Hazy black, small, stable, beige head. Aroma of coffee cream, mocha, rice pudding, cookie dough, cinnamon, vanilla, coffee liqueur. Taste has sweet cream, vanilla & milk chocolate, softly bitter mocha and some spices in a nutty, bit toasty malt body. Herbal hops in the finish, lots of cream and coffee lingering but also a slightly chemical spicy bitterness; warming coffee liqueur-like alcohol. Medium to full body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Tad too much milk sugar and there's just something off, so probably the 'least good' of the Speedways.

Thanks fonefan! Black colour, minor head. Aroma is coffee, some mild vanilla and dried fruits and some cinnamon. Flavour is coffee, some liquorice, mild alcohol sweetness with some vanilla and a bit cinnamon and dry wooden tones. Alcohol gives a slight kick to it.

Can from Andover Classic Wines. Opaque dark brown with ring of head, light viscosity, trace lacing. Aroma is mild cinnamon, corn chip. Taste is cinnamon, lactose, not getting coffee. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Hard to believe this series is supposed to be based on coffee stout. No coffee. How the mighty have fallen...
