Taster pour at Powder Keg Beer & Chili festival. Appearance is very dark brown (almost opaque) with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, thin ring of light brown head. Aroma is lactose, roasted malt, vanilla and chocolate--not a lot of coffee. Taste is nice roasted malt toward ashy side, chocolate. Mouthfeel is medium-to-full bodied with thick texture, average-to-lively carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, surprising lack of coffee and, while the mouthfeel feels really good, it seems both a both thick and overcarbonated for the style. Still, enjoyable.
