★ Review: AleSmith Speedway Stout (Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee)

   AROMA 8/10   APPEARANCE 5/5   TASTE 7/10   PALATE 4/5   OVERALL15/20

Bottled February 2014, Thanks Eric for sending this over! Enjoyed at 55F split 3 ways. 

A – Creamy coffee head, super sticky dark black, no light coming through at all. 

S – Medicinal coffee, super fresh roasted notes. Has a very acidic chocolate and caramel nose. 

T – This is like chewing on coffee beans which is both good and bad. A little bit of fudge and very sweet throughout. The roasted acidic medicinal notes are rough but if you love coffee, it’s pretty darn good. 

M – Creamy, smooth and a very high bitterness with velvety sweet finish. 

O – This is a good imperial stout. Super drinkable but could not drink more than a glass unless you really love coffee. Good thing I do.
