From tap at Hopworks Urban Brewery, Portland. Aroma is intense coffee, roasted malt, coffee grounds, espresso, touch of cocoa and mocha. Flavour is fairly bitter and light sweet. Body is medium. Bucketloads of coffee, very nice!
473ml can. (5.8% ABV) Pours an opaque black with a medium, creamy, long lasting, tan head that laces nicely. Aroma of espresso, roasted malt and dark chocolate. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel and a hint of vanilla with a dry, bitter coffee finish. Light to medium body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Tasty but could use more body.

Taste: A drak malty bitterness,moderate sweet, malts, chocolate, mocha, espresso.water-oily texture,about average body,avarge carbonation.
Very Tasty, but a bit thin, a slight thicker texture would be doing the beer more justice.

66cl bottle shared at my last THT.
Medium creamy beige head. Clear black pour. Lots of coffee. Very nice.
Fajne przyprawowe piwo, z mnostwem kakao i kawy espresso. Pianka bezowa, srednia i srednio trwala, oblepiajaca dosc mocno szklo. W smaku naprawde sporo przyprawosci, ziaren, dosc zbozowe, gryczane powiedzialbym piwo, troche miodowej lepkosci na ustach. Poprawny, dobry stout ale bez szalu.
Bottle from the dregs run delivery. Thanks Craig! Pours black with a thin beige head. Aromas of light chocolate and coffee. Taste is more coffee, quite thin on the finish though.
Bottle at home... Dark black.. Small tan head... Chocolate roast malts nose.. Herbal fruit.. Caramel toffee fruit nose... Soft sweet caramel toffee fruit.. Soft toffee chocolate roast malts
incredibly smooth beverage. the addition of the cold brew espresso really shines through on the nose and palate. hint of wood and rum on the finish.
A nice black stout. Thinner sandy lacing left behind from a short-lived and thin mocha head. Crisp and biting. Coffee appears half way thru . loght sweet chocolate and coffee bean finish. Decent.
On tap @ Kick. Dark brown, almost black body with a small, lacing, tan head. Really nice aroma dominated by coffee and some roasted malt in the background. Flavor is medium sweet, dark malt, lots of good coffee, roast, and medium bitterness. Nice balanced body and long, good aftertaste. A very nice coffee stout.
[24/12/15] Bottle from Clackamas Town Center: Dark brown body with slight head. Nose is caramel, toasty and coffee. Taste similar of coffee and malts. Nice tastes in there.
Kick 240916. black colour with a tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, cocoa. Flavour is roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, cocoa, licorice. Medium body. Easy drinkable nice beer.
Dark brown with ruby, pinkish creamy foam. Aroma: sweet, caramel, dried fruit, coffee and roasted. Taste: burnt malt, caramel, wine, coffee, dried fruits and nuts, mild hop bitterness, a bit watery.
Hugely appealing coffe aroma in a jet black pour. Brilliantly balanced mix of coffee and beer is one of the best examples of the style (US Cold Coffee Stout) I’ve had. The restrained strength only adds to the appeal...seriously, this is an excellent beer.
Bottle

Aroma: pumpernickel, honey.
Appearance: dark brown color and white head.
Taste: roasted dark malts, pumpernickel, burnt malt, herbs, quite dry.
Palate: low body and medium carbonation, roasted finish.
Overall: Decent stout.
Aromat: przyjemne połączenie palonych słodów, czekolady i kawy. Niestety trochę utlenione.
Wygląd: barwa czarna, nieprzejrzysta z brązową, drobno pęcherzykową pianą, obfitą i dosyć trwałą.
Smak: raczej wytrawna podstawa (choć i słodycz z czasem się uaktywnia), z nutą kwaskowości pochodzącą od ciemnych słodów. Paloność, czekolada gorzka i mleczna, melano i sporo kawy. Goryczka umiarkowana, słodowa, przyjemna. Średnia pełnia, umiarkowane wysycenie i gładki, wytrawny finisz z nutą kwaskową i lekko alkoholową.
Wielosłodowość to niewątpliwa zaleta tego piwa, choć o niektórych słodach dotąd nawet nie słyszałem. Szkoda tylko tego utlenienia, bo mogłoby być wyżej.
650 ml bottle poured at home. Pours dark brown with slight beige head. First smell was of spice, like Chili powder. After it sat a bit I got more coffee smell. Taste is primarily coffee and has a bitter finish. Good beer.
Bottle thx to Benzai, medium sample. Dark brown color, short frothy head. Aroma has lots of coffee, slight roast, bit dark choc. Coffee and roasty bitterness. Slight thin in body, but loads of flavor for a low ABV. Pleasant surprise. Great.
Bottle shared with Caesar @ Caesars mancave. Opaque dark brown color, medium sized beige to light brown color. Aroma is malts, chocolate, mocha, coffee. Tastes about the same: malts, chocolate, mocha, coffee, espresso, chocolate mocha bitter. A bit watery texture, average body and carbonation. Very flavorful, but also very thin imo.
