Handpull at the Watering Hole. Dark brown, small thin golden bubbly head. Aroma is cafe au lait. Coffee and milk, roasty malt. Taste is sloghtly milky coffee, bit of cola. Quite nice and pleasantly subtle for a coffee beer. Apparently it has changed from the beer previous people had.

2016 re-rate: Huge vanilla nose with milk chocolate and bit of roasted cacao nib. Light bodied and feels more porter-like. Tons of coffee mixed with some creamy lactose notes on the palate. More vanilla. Sweet finish with a touch of dryness from the coffee. Better than I remembered. Hand pump at CBM Koenji. Deep brown with no head. Big roasted coffee aromas with a huge dose of rich, creamy cacao. Body is thin and watery, but the coffee notes are there and dominate with roasted coffee bitterness. Finish is quick with a little coffee and chocolate left on the palate, but doesn’t really stick. Flavors are there, but body and finish were a tad weak. --- Beer merged from original tick of Minoh Coffee Stout on 29 Nov 2015 at 13:47 - Score: 6

Near black with a frothy beige head. Coffee is obviously the main player in the aroma. Some sweet, roasted malts, light molasses, and chocolate. Very, very smooth mouth. Roasted coffee beans, light chocolate, and everything else is pretty well masked. Having said that, it wasn’t all that intense of a coffee flavor. Muted just enough to remain very drinkable. I really enjoyed this one.

Draught at Thrash Zone, Yokohama (as Minoh Espresso Stout). Completely black with small beige head. Rich and wonderful chcolate and coffee aroma. Mid sweet with above medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Plenty of coffee dropped on a velvet carpet. Milk chocolate and espresso linges as it slowly fades out.

Real Ale from the Handpump. Coffee big time. Unabashed. This was a very interesting stout, although when I tried it I had trouble tasting the beer for the coffee. Intense coffee flavors seem to rule everything. Nice body, nice looking, decent sweetness, but too much coffee for me. New rating, much better balanced, with hazelnut coffee, good notes of chocolate and nuts, well balanced.

Pitch black color. Dark brown head. Sweet malty nose with distinctive coffee and dark chocolate notes. This is one of those sweet coffee stouts where its all about the malty sweetness and coffee. Hops are barely noticable. Still somewhat rather intense coffee flavors and enjoyable, but like most coffee stouts, one is enough. Would have again, especially in the morning.
