Don't get any on your clothes. This shit is dark. Dark fruit aroma. A flavor bomb of coffee, licorice, chocolate, and muscovado. The mouthfeel is like you're eating a piece of fudge. Most excellent. 12% abv $4.00 16oz can Chucks Hop Shop — 8 years ago

Vanilla is the first thing that hits you. The caramel adds a certain sweetness to the taste. I would literally drink this all the time if I could get it. Dark, tasty, perfection. — 8 years ago

Original bottling, and worth the time on the cellar. More understated and seamless than it was in its youth, now quietly complex and richly complicated. — 9 years ago

1998 vintage. Essentially no carbonation. Some good bourbon barrel character but a bit too sweet. — 8 years ago

I have been drinking a lot of beers lately, that is because I have far too many!! 69 different beers at last count! Most are strong ales, barley wines, and barrel aged (fill in the blank) this coffee stout is just a simple old favorite with a mocha nose, and a wood ear mushroom rustic touch. A mostly creamy head with animal cracker lacing, a well-integrated and borderline milk-stout mouthfeel, strong coffee note that remains well into second breakfast. The beer geek brunch is on tap down the street. Feral coffee? Let's get schizophrenic! — 9 years ago

Best in class. As a fan of Founder's Breakfast Stout, this beer checks all the boxes and is the new king of the category. If only I could have this for breakfast everyday....

9.1

Chicory coffee darkness and rich leaf compost. No trace of the licorice in the particulates wafting. Frizzante licorice extract is quick to express, raking fine-grained across the entire tongue. Chicory coffee again, against a slate backdrop, ginger beer when it thins, but real, swelling kind of dark-oasted stout repercussions that focus and enrich this enjoyable effort. — 9 years ago

2012 Rebel Yell: Not as memorable as the bottle opened last year.
Dates, cold brew coffee, toffee and just enough oxidized character to be interesting, but still past its prime.
Rated as an average between samples. — 9 years ago
