Sampled on draft at Gateway Grill this beer poured a murky yellow-gold color with a medium sized creamy white head that left great lacing. The aroma was tart, citric and perfumey. The flavor was tart and bitter with notes of perfume and cactus. Very long finish. Moderately full bodied. Solid.

When I saw the name, I thought impy stout but its really just sweet coffee stout. Bot. Smells like coffee with a little dark chocolate in the background. Taste is milk stout like with some coffee and a dull dark chocolate backbone, taste is same as the nose. Think rich cold black coffee flavors. The coffee is so strong, it covers the alky rather well. Somebody may drink this thinking is simple chilled black coffee. Even without the taste of alky, that coffee is so dark and so bitter black, whew. It takes a little away from the enjoy-ability factor. Interesting at first but gets a little difficult in the end.

On tap @ City Swiggers. This is a clouded looking orange colored one. A small lacing just off-white head on the top. Smells quite buttery and almost roasted bitter at first. There's traces of needles, green coffee beans, hey wait a minute, this is a coffee IPA! It all makes sense now. Lots of the near roasted green coffee beans. The thing I thought was diacetyl did drag the total score a bit down at a moment, but I kinda like the aroma more and more. Tastes really really good. The coffee is perfectly balanced between the grassy hops. Nice and oily in the mouth and it's about average, perhaps a tad below on the bubbles. Loaded with lovely green coffee on the taste. Hints of licorice also, and it's loaded with fresh grassy hops. Really tasty this one. Really. 18.06.2015

New Beer Distributors, NYC bottle: pours golden with small white head. Aroma is light fruitiness, sort of a Euro macro smell, bread. Taste is kind of lie a Euro macro... does this make it more truly adherent to the style. Kind of grainy bitterness. Bready. Not bad. Easy to drink, but not crazy about this.

Bottle from Whole Foods Union Square. Hazy orange with floating sediment (?), large foamy whitish head, flowery aroma, medium carbonation, slighty sweet very flavorful orange taste, thin body, medium long finish with flowery aftertaste. Smooth and flavorful, but it was probably beyond the expiry date, ergo the sediments.
