mcberko (10105) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - OCT 11, 2015
500mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out a good mix of lactose and coffee. Flavour is thick, with lots of lactose, coffee and a touch of roast. Super thick, milky palate. The flavours are muted a little by the lactose, ironically. It’s a very hearty stout – big body, with no harshness.

AgentAle (1168) - Alberta, CANADA - SEP 29, 2015
Aroma is roasted malts, coffee, fig, caramel and espresso. Taste is a deeply rich and smokey malt base with rich sweetness and flavors very similar to the taste. Finishes with light clove and smokey malts. Appearance is black with a beige head that finishes very nicely.

RCx240 (134) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - SEP 22, 2015
Pitch black, with a thin, foamy tan head. Some lacing. Faint aroma of coffee. Taste is bitter, strong coffee notes, slight sweetness. Finishes clean, doesn’t linger. Full bodied with a rich, creamy texture. Pretty decent.

MunBro (845) - St. Albert, Alberta, CANADA - SEP 6, 2015
Nice aroma of coffee and malts. Typical dark pour with a foamy tan head. No lacing. Flavour of rich coffee, espressos followed with notes of sweet sugars, chocolates, and roasted malts.

patricks110 (2191) - Alberta, CANADA - AUG 27, 2015
Enjoyable brew with a rich, complex coffee taste, mocha, a pinch of lactose that blends well and doesn’t over sweeten. The pour is a pure opaque black with a creamy tan head, light carbonation. Rich, creamy, roasted and malty with a fine italian espresso backbone.

reebtogi (4970) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - AUG 23, 2015
500ml bottle pours black in color with a 2 finger light brown head that leaves some nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is coffee and roasted malts with hints of chocolate and vanilla. Taste is a roasted grain and coffee bitterness with a chocolate malty sweetness and some vanilla in the finish. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Overall, a well crafted stout that is well balanced and tasty.

floydian1 (1217) - FNQ, Australia, - AUG 16, 2015
500ml bottle from Slowbeer, Melbourne. You could be in a coffee roastery for the pungent roasted coffeebeans which dominate the nose together with notes of dark roasted malts and hints of vanilla plus cherries. Palate is richer than the ABV would suggest with creamy malty coffee flavours and a light-medium dry hop finish. It is not too sweet which is a real plus point in my book. Pours matt black with a (you guessed it) latte-coloured head of ample size and duration. Enjoyed this one.

Hop_Hedonist (348) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - AUG 15, 2015
UPDATED: AUG 16, 2015 Pleasant enough but didn’t rock my world - not intense enough - although mouthfeel a bit rough, easy enough drinker. Nowhere in the league of istout. A bit forgettable.

wvhoran (454) - Tasmania, - AUG 13, 2015
Draught at Mikkeller Bangkok. Pours black with a small tan head. The aroma is coffee. It smells like a nice cold filter coffee. Crazy. The flavour has traces of dark malt but it’s dominated by black coffee with just a touch of lacto. Well made.

Maris (1204) - Canberra, AUSTRALIA - AUG 8, 2015
From a 500ml bottle on 8/8/2015 (shared by Butz with thanks). Pours a deep brown with a big tan head. Has a big, strong, really pleasant aroma of roasted coffee beans. The flavour is also dominated by strong coffee, with some chocolate, roasted malt and a touch of vanilla. It’s on the sweetish side for a stout, but still very well balanced, with a decent roasty bitterness in the background. Medium bodied with average carbonation. This is a damn fine, top notch coffee infused stout.
