Thanks to Rustydiamond, via mikesgroove, for the chance to have a crack at this one. 64oz growler. Attractive design on the glass.
Pour shows a great, jet black pour (as expected), but a rather too fizzy a head. Carbonation seems high for the style. Head dies quickly with almost no lace.
Aroma IS exceptional – pure coffee, no more, no less.
Tastes do not reflect the huge aroma. I guess I was expecting a big gulp of coffee, but instead I got a rather reserved, porter, mildly roasted flavor. The mouthfeel is a little disappointing for the style. In fact, rather thin.
Has to be said, this was pretty uninspiring.
