Big, Dark and Scary Imperial-esque Stout Brewed With Plenty of Dark Malts and Roast Barley And Loads of Sebastopol’s Hardcore Coffee for Even Bigger Roasty Flavors and that Extra Krunk.

[1] Review by Brett from Far from good beer, OK, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/11/2012 4:52:00 PM)
"Sampled from bottle, thanks to Dansting! Pours very dark brown with a thin, scattered head. Coffee and roasted malt aroma. Rich flavor dominated by coffee and roasted malt. Great flavor but just not very complex. Medium-bodied and well-carbonated. If you dig coffee, you need to find this."

"Cloudy dark brown/ near black pour, some lacing, little carbonation. Stale coffee and old sweet malt aroma. Taste is a big letdown too: very little advertised coffee, stale malts, overly sweet, a big let down. Maybe it was an old bottle. Will revisit if I find another but for now - No."

"A murky brown colored beer with a big foamy textured, light tan head rising above. There’s great hang time on this one. Settles into a thick ringlet and light dusting of film aside the glass. Bitter coffee in the nose. Some citrus hops blened in well with that coffee and sweet malt in the tasting. Medium bodied, adequately carbonated. Overall a good beer. Not a WOW beer. "

[5] Review by dogfoodman from Redwood Valley, CA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (3/6/2010 10:03:44 PM)
"This particular beverage is produced less than 50 miles from my home. Generally I love the Lagunitas brand, but personally I found this variety to be somewhat of a disappointment. This interation of the lagaunitas brewery appeared in the local grocery store and as I am a periodic coffee lover I thought I would give this "limited issue" beverage a try. I purchased two bottles. The first was consumed, I found the beverage to be pleasantly bitter, but the coffee overtones to be somewhat intimidating, the mouth feel was appropriately long lasting, not watery. Flavor was like nothing I had ever experienced, not wonderful but tolerable. The second bottle as consumed several days later. I am sorry to say that I was unable to finish the serving. It may have been my mood or something else but I was unable finish because of the seemingly too strong coffee flavor along with bitter hop characteristics. "
