Samuel Adams Black & Brew Coffee Stout
12 oz. bottle, A: Pours black with a firm dark tan head. Good retention with fairly thick lacing. S: Real nice true notes of espresso, light dark chocolate. T: Coffee is heavy, but well integrated with the base beer. Bittersweet chocolate with a hint of hops in the finish, but overall a malt dominated brew. M: Medium-bodied, very creamy and smooth, moderate aftertaste. O: This is a really good coffee stout. Not up there with Peche Mortel, but the balance is fantastic and makes for an easy drinking beer. A great addition to the winter mix pack.
