2$ bottle from vintage estate. Light brown on darker pale color. Nose is coffee. Big bad coffee taste but its hard to pick out any caramel or salt in this. Yes, pretty much tastes like the plain old Elly coldspresso. In the middle I do get some cutting co2 which makes this easier to drink. Still, its big bad black coffee flavors in yer face. Becomes a little more difficult near the finish, seems to be getting on my nerves and now I feel a little bit of the cloying caramel effects coming thru. I'm not going to drain pour this stuff but will not buy another. Finish is a little rude.

Bottle. A- Stewed vegetables, musty. A- Dark copper color, clear liquid, fizzy head. T- Bell peppers, grains, malty, stale coffee. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, astringent finish. O- At first I thought this was simply a bad bottle. Very earthy and vegetal and just off. No salted caramel or really rich coffee detected. Then I had the base beer, Coldspresso immediately after. Just as bad, although they were different SRMs and even ABVS, just a really bad series base and variants alike. Not a fan at all. This was a drain pour.
