Oh snap, guess I jumped the gun. This sure was a tasty one - nice and dark, good sweetness to it, haven't checked the ABV but it has a bit of a warmness to it. I really like what you did with the coffee, it shines through very nicely and compliments the beer well.
Thanks for sharing!

I skipped ahead too, inspired by Matt's devil-may-care attitude. Rules are made to be broken!
I"m not usually a big fan of an overt coffee taste in stout -- especially if it has an astringent aftertaste (which this one did not) -- but I was intrigued by the name and in the mood to try it (plus I had chilled it earlier this morning before I went to the beach).
This was great... deep, rich flavour with a nice, smooth finish. The espresso really came through and worked nicely. Thanks for the great beer.

This was a nicely done beer. Well balanced between the different adjuncts added. The coffee was up front and center but not so much that it was a one note affair. Hint of sweetness was a nice touch and rounded out the more bitter and roasty flavours. The cinnamon I think was really well done, adding just a little complexity to everything. Glad you got into brewing and even gladder to get to drink one of them

I could have done with a bit more carb in mine. Otherwise I thought the balance was excellent, especially the amount of lactose, which I think was perfect. Thanks for the share.

Sorry about the carbonation. Not sure why yours didn't get what it needed.mumblecrunch wrote: ↑Thu Dec 17, 2020 6:44 pmI could have done with a bit more carb in mine. Otherwise I thought the balance was excellent, especially the amount of lactose, which I think was perfect. Thanks for the share.
