What the brewers say

“Dessert stout with cinnamon, coffee, vanilla, lactose.”

What our panel thought

“Sugary nose with layers of rich chocolate, touches of cinnamon, light maple. It would be your bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch if condensed down, well balanced by a nice fresh coffee element with hints of brown sugar and molasses hiding in the background. Chocolate-forward base beer offers the perfect canvas for the dessert-focused stout. Coffee reemerges in the finish creating a nice palate-cleansing bitterness, bookending the mid-palate sweetness. Thick, sugary mouthfeel requires slow sipping, yet it remains highly drinkable.”

What our editors thought

“Beautiful nose with spicy cinnamon underneath maple syrup, whipped together into a whole with the pervasive rounded coffee. The sip is more subtle than the nose suggests, as the sweet and bitter notes both drop back into smooth cohesion.”
