Draft - Cocoa and roast with some nice unusual medicinal herbal notes. Deep dark brown with a rich beige head. Cocoa and medicinal herbal notes. Odd flavors, not sure what Echinacea really smells or tastes like but this is rich and quite pleasant.

On tap at Storm, pours black with a small beige head. Nose brings out nothing but echinacea flowers, twigs and earthy notes. Flavour is the same, balanced with more of the base stout to create an earthy, semi-sweet palate. Surprisingly good stuff.

On tap at Storm, pours a dark orange with a small beige head. Nose brings out grapes, cranberries and blueberries - very fruity. Flavour is extremely fruity, with grapes and blueberries upfront. Moderately sweet and lightly sour. Interesting beer - not bad.

On tap at Storm, pours a golden orange with a small white head. Aroma and flavour brings out citrus hops upfront, with some lightly tart grapefruit and vinous notes. Strange concoction, but it works pretty well. Dry and lightly tart on the finish. Good stuff.

Cloudy amber-red color with small frothy head. Aroma of fruits, vanilla, feet, lightly sour. Good mouthfeel, ticklish, it conveys both the beer and the wine flavor, lowly bitter.
Weird but pleasant.

On tap at Storm, pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings out harsh espresso notes, as well as some chili and/or peppercorn notes. Flavour brings out muted espresso upfront, and hints of chili and peppercorn. Not as espresso-y as I would've hoped, with a rather muted flavour profile. It's okay.

Black color, sparse head. Not the first time I get a coffee beer at Storm’s, so not surprisingly the aroma is coffeish and dusty. The body is lean, the alcohol not too strong but clearly perceived, roasted malt and coffee flavor. Would be more pleasant if it had some more sweetness, it would also improve the final. I appreciate the final herbal note though.
