Coffee for a nightcap. Well, not coffee as such but an Imperial Coffee Stout. Can't say if this contains caffeine or not.
Anyway, the beer shows opaque, pitch black. Timid carbonation creates a moderate tawny head that falls seriously short of one finger and dies hastily to zero. The top is still.
Intensive coconut flakes dance seductively with espresso, maple syrup, modest brown sugar and a touch of vanilla in the fragrance. Obviously sweet.
The palate serves black and white flavors, such as coconut flakes, lactose and a hint of vanilla on the white side, and espresso, maple syrup, dark chocolate and brown sugar on the black side. Sweet, indeed!
The body is full but not supersturdy. The tail narrows down somewhat, for example the coffeeish sector diminishes significantly while the rest of the dark flavors continue further on. Mourning coffee tastes like there's no use for me to gettin' up again, and I dream your lips onto my skin; I've seen many of your future, plenty of your past, and I walk miles to get through the aftertaste but it's just, a bit too fast.
The mouthfeel is full, sticky, deep, intense, a tad chewy and desserty. Attractive but rather predictable.
