Quick review. No pics because I have no batteries.

Last night I tried a 22 oz.'er of Lagunitas' Cappuccino Stout, limited release. Brewed with real coffee. I had high hopes for this beer, because coffee is probably my favorite thing in the world.

The beer poured a typical stout color. As I was pouring the beer, the coffee scent came through strongly. It had a nice, three finger head. Once the beer settled, the nose was underwhelming. I would've liked a more prominent scent.

The taste was good, but nothing amazing. F fairly typical stout. A nice roasted flavor, but again, I could've used more coffee undertones. I did notice that I enjoyed the second half of the 22 oz. bottle more, as the beer warmed a little bit. The coffee flavor came through better, and it had a bitter aftertaste (which I like). Perhaps I served it too cold. I give this beer [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], but I'd be willing to try it again and try not to chill it as much.
