I liked it - found more coffee aroma than flavour - not saying the flavour wasn't there, the coffee just seemed more dominant in the aroma.Jimmy wrote:It's a coffee infused stout.

Re: Official Rockbottom Brewpub Thread
Who's thinking of heading down? I finish my final exam at some point this morning, so I'm likely headed to RB for the Firkin at some point this afternoon. Is anyone daring to go before BJCP?
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

I've got at least an hour of painting and cleanup left. I'd consider heading in for one.

I think I'm going to work on my cold frames today as everyone just left here for the day. But if anybody is driving down around 2ish, I suppose I should go...

This year's Desecration, like last year's, is terrible. You should avoid drinking it and leave it's disposal to professionals like myself.
