Description:
Everyday Goose Island smells the wonderful coffee roasting next to our brewery at Chicago's Intelligentsia Coffee and Tea. They put the same passion and skill into their coffee as Goose Island does with its beer. This excellent stout is made with Black Cat Espresso beans from our friends next door. You'll like the combination.

Appearance - 5.0
Poured an 1/2 inch of dark tan head into a tulip. Pours like motor oil. Deep and black with absolutely no light coming through.
Aroma - 5.0
Coffee, bourbon, and a sweet roasted malt.
Mouthfeel - 4.5
Medium-full in body. Very smooth with low carbonation. I have to dock it .5 points because the body isn't as full as I would have expected.
Taste - 4.5
It starts out with some coffee, followed by some dark roasted malts. The bourbon takes over and finishes the beer, leaving a fairly hot aftertaste.
Overall - 5.0
Absolutely excellent. The coffee is a pretty nice compliment to the bourbon, however, I think this beer would benefit from a year or two.
