Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Colombian coffee, vanilla, and cigar box.
Taste: Espresso, chocolate, coffee, bitter burnt roast, and caramel.

I concur! I enjoyed this at the CCB Tap Room this past Saturday and loved it. I love coffee beers and this is an extraordinary example.
