Oops. Best before June 30th. First time I've seen it. Shrugs.

Being well past the bb date didn't hurt the appearance. Dark reddish brown, healthy head of off white foam, some lacing.

Hmmm..coffee roast along with a good roasted malt aroma appears to be of good standing. That and bitter chocolate; So far, so good, eh?

Taste is pretty close to the smell except that there's some oxidation going on. Like in some astringency. Oh well, the bubble has burst. Not Upslope's fault.

Good mouthfeel.

I wish that I had found it earlier ie fresher but my review/score will not show any disdain for the brewer.

From an imperial pint can labled “Tap Room Series Coffee Brown Ale.” Pours a hazy dark mahogany with a big, fine-bubble tan head. Aromas of coffe and chocolate. Flavors are moderately sweet with a touch of bitteness. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Tasty.

Sample at the Flatiron Park taproom. The beer is a dark brown color with a medium foamy tan head that recedes steadily to a film. Sticky strings of lacing on the glass. Roasted malt, coffee and chocolate in the nose. Medium-bodied with a roasty coffee and malt character, with some bittersweet chocolate in the background. The finish is mildly bitter with a roast coffee aftertaste. Decent overall.
