Found this Chicago beer at The Foundry in Rome Georgia. They still have a few good beers but new ownership is lacking. One ingredient, the coffee, it's different in this 2024 edition. The can says Costa Rica Tarrazu San Miguel Coffee. Can looks the same as the 2021 can. Small dark tan head emerged quickly and then receded just as fast. Opaque black in color. Aroma is giving an alcohol liqueur, sweet, background notes of coffee and chocolate. Texture is light and yet somewhat sticky in the mouth. Coffee appears first, heavily roasted and dark. Then bittersweet dark chocolate, a confectionery light cream which possibly could be described as marshmallow, and a thin blanket of molasses which only builds into the finish where it is joined by a subtle understated cookie. Not really graham cracker. I've had several S'mores beers now and I'm not impressed by this one. It lost all effervescence quickly. The alcohol was only apparent for a brief moment and never really enhanced the beer. The coffee was excellent but the other flavors never really seemed to blend. I did really appreciate the can which not only gave you the natural ingredients but the malts and hops they used. And there was nothing artificial, I believe they used real ingredients. That said, this is a pretty good beer but I just had my expectations set too high. I was hoping for a high four and got a high three.

Coffee, chocolate and marshmallow in the aroma. Taste has coffee, marshmallow, chocolate and a hint of graham cracker in the finish. Nice combination of a s'mores stout and a coffee stout. Medium+ body with medium-low carbonation. 4/5
