Pours coffee black with a thick frothy crema of dark tan foam. The can was cool; a blank silver can with the beer label stickered to the outside. Excited to dive in.

Tinny dark fruit, sour stout-y mash, light coffee, oaty bitterness, and a citric rind hop. Roasty and a tad wort-y.

Robust spicy coffee and booze with toned-down sweetness and citrusy hop bitterness. Floral and a little boozy. Coffee is well-represented and accented by licorice and dark fruits. Maybe hints of raisin and bramble.

The body is a little disappointing. Carbonation is fine. However, the fact that I can taste alcohol this much in a 7.1% beer is a head-shaker.

This beer gets better as it warms, but the aroma and body are too weak, and the booze is too brawny. A decent little beer, but I think they were going for more for their Anniversary Ale.

Pours a dark brown color, very close to the color of coffee. No head retention. Aroma is of iced coffee, malts, and something sweet (possibly lactose sugar). Coffee is also prominent in it's flavor, both in the beginning and finish, with a sweeter middle. This beer definitely needs more body, more substance, more carbonation, more flavor, more everything.

Thanks Kegatron for gifting me with one of these. A 12oz can poured into a tulip. The brew appears dark brown with ruby clarity and a khaki topping that fades leaving patchy lace.

Aroma is roasty with essence of milk chocolate slight citrus/minerals and coffee. Tastes fresh with sweet cereal grains, chocolate and citrus/coffee with a hint of earth and minerals.

Medium in body, creamy with moderate carbonation. Not bad.

12 oz can

Pours opaque black, yellowish light tan head is a quarter inch thick and dissipates to a film.

Smells of cocoa, brown sugar, molasses and fig.

Taste is the same plus a little coppery malt and some oak woodiness.

Medium body with tingly carbonation on the roof of the mouth.

Decent stout, some good aroma and pours nicely. Flavor is a bit cloying in its sweetness although not overwhelming. Drinks okay. Worth a try if you can still find it but nothing to fret over if you missed it.

I tried this from the can purchased at Grain & Verse -poured chilled in a stout glass.

The color is black, opaque with visible carbonation and quick to fall pale tan head with tiny bead average lace spots on glass. The smell has a slight fruity yeast and light caramel malt odor with slight roasted barley/earthy coffee scent. The feel is good with moderately full body and medium carbonation with slight sweetness on the tip with chewy malt texture and slight spice with moderately dry light finish.

The taste of coffee is light up front with nice amount of roast and earthy flavor alongside the caramel taste with some bready malt character mid palate and slight hint of dried fruit in the yeast dept. The flavor has a subtle lingering roast flavor as it finishes semi-dry with some coffee in the back. As this warms it grows on me more until the last sips since the coffee is so well integrated in its subtle nature yet still apparent in the taste with subtle sweetend cocoa aspect that augments the stout well.

Enjoyed from a can in a snifter. This nice oatmeal coffee stout pours a rich blackish brown with light ruby highlights, a moderate light tan head of dissipating foam that dies down to a nice pool and thick ring, and light lacing. Nose of sweet dark chocolate, fresh delicious coffee, moderate alcohol, crème brulee notes, and sweet caramel malts. Flavors are up front sweet and smooth due to the oatmeal in it with a moderate coffee flavor to the back, sweet dark chocolate to the sides mingling with a light brown sugar flavor. Dark fruits are noted to the rear as well with a little raisin quality coming through. Smooth character in the sipping department, good carbonation and lightly creamy. Very nice with a slick and lightly bitter aftertaste. Excellent.
