Tap at the brewery - there is not a major difference between this and the straight up session stout (I tried their different iterations of coffee stout side by side with the original) - the mild mineral, slight acidity, raisin, and dried cherry of the original are still present - the coffee itself is a little subdued and muddy/muddled, not really adding anything, but sort of getting in the way of the brighter flavors of the base beer - valiant effort, but I prefer the original.
