Tasted on 4/12/2016 by BeerTokay

Notes:

Tasted while racked, taste was balanced, surprised considering the top blew off. The coffee comes through nice and gentle, not too strong. Chocolate overtones nice.

Notes:

Coffee Flavour was very, very light. Hops were well balanced, but crazy, crazy sweet!
