Finnegans Dead Irish Poet Coffee Stout. Stout brewed with Caribou Coffee.
7% ABV, 38 IBU, Brewed & canned by Finnegans Brew Co., Minneapolis, MN.
Dark brown color, bordering on black, full opacity, rich brown ring of foam floats above.
In the nose: Coffee pops out rich, earthy, bittersweet. Moderate, but well appreciated. Chocolate malt aromas rest beneath.
In the mouth: Coffee flavors dominates, and it's sharp, sweet, bitter. Gritty, earthy, roasty and toasty. Unfortunately, I feel that the richness and fullness of the original beer is lost here. Not exactly a proper combination of the two. Body is medium, finish is bittersweet. Bit on the thin side. Overall, enjoyable, but I kept wanting more.
Coffee forward with roasted malt and dark chocolate. Silky smooth mouth feel with a rich tight foam cap
