StarHill Collaboration with Terrapin Brewing Co. - Gava Joe

Style: Stout
ABV: 6.9%
IBUs: N/A
Suggested Serving Temp.: 40-50% Degrees

Description: Coffee Espresso style export stout. Uses real Jittery Joe's Coffee

Rating: 5/10
Review:(Served on tap in 10oz snifter glass)
  Appearance: Dark heavy black pour. Carmel finger head, no light permeating.
  Smell: Heavy coffee, peculiar a malts, not much hop present on nose, slight brown sugar.
  Taste: Heavy body, but weak yeast and malt characters. Brown sugar and roasted malts presents just not really to significant, lots of crappy coffee coming through too.
  Mouthfeel: Creamy an silky.
  Overall: Not my cup o joe. Really did not dig this one, didn't even bother to finish it. Bitter coffee tones overwhelm the roasted malts and brown sugar. Huge fan of black coffee, not of this brew though.
