Pours dark brown, with a significant, biscuity colored foam. Lacing is quite durable. Smell is strongly coffee with lighter toast, but surprisingly little fruit. Coffee is also the strongest element of the taste, over a base of medium strength stout, good balance of malty and roasted grain flavors. Don't taste strongly of fruit, except for a little tartness toward the end. Carbonation remains strong until surprisingly late, but the mouth feel nonetheless seems a little light for the style.
Overall, this is a very nice coffee stout, but the raspberry is lacking. Given other reviews, I wonder what may have happened to this bottle, but the other 2 I've had from the mixed-12 pack taste the same.

Appearance: Dark ruby, with a nice khaki head and little to no lace.
Aroma: Delicious berries and cocoa/coffee. Like a dessert. Very nice!
Taste: Not sweet or overbearing, but full-on toasty with a pleasing natural raspberry flavor adding a delectable fruity note and depth. Superb and unique brew.

Black body with a tan ring of bubbles and lacing. Coffee, dark chocolate, faint raspberry and malt make up the smell, basic but nice. Taste brings more of the dark chocolate covered raspberry in to match the coffee. Good maltwork here. Nice stout

Near black with ruby highlights and this head that quickly fades. Smells of coffee and sweet, tart raspberries. Tastes the same; the raspberry isn't subtle, but to me it tastes authentic. It's a flavor combination that works quite well. Pretty sweet, just a little coying. A stronger carbonation bite than you normally have in a stout, but it works with the berry flavor. Medium full body and silky smooth. Really quite excellent if it's your kind of thing.

Delicate aromas of raspberry and coffee. Slightly tart with a touch of sweetness. Dessert like flavor. Perfect balance with neither flavor overpowering. Moderate Roasted malt. Velvety feel with tiny, tingly bubbles. Awesome.

Bit of a let down this one.
Lacked the coffee roastiness i expect, and while I hoped a little more robust flavour would emerge as it warmed up, all that happened was the raspberry became overwhelming.
Much better value to be had spending your money on their always solid BA stout.
