About This Beer
The Ale experts at Grimm packed all the flavors from my favorite coffee cake into one seriously decadent Milk Stout, so now I can enjoy this dessert whenever I want. Plus, this boozy brew comes with a welcome 11.5% ABV, so it’s even better than what you’d find at a boring old bakery!
Tasting Notes
Waves of deep malty flavors cascade into decadent notes of coconut and vanilla. Additions of Kenyan Kieni AA Arabica coffee beans introduce a complex roastiness that rounds out the flavor, while creamy milk sugar makes the body silky smooth and oh-so satisfying.

Would really prefer a different balance between the adjuncts. Nothing really comes through outside of a sugary syrup punch in the mouth.

Smelled like coffee, tasted like heaven.

The coffee, caramel, coconut, and rich mouthfeel come across well, but not as a coffee cake. Absolutely delicious, though

Coffee, vanilla, frosting, malty, don’t get the coconut.
3.0
Sensory overload. Your getting super heavy chocolate and coconut flavor, as well as this cloyingly sweet aftertaste that evokes frosting. The flavor is good but it’s a little too much for my taste.
3.5
Tasty coffee notes with that slight fruity flavor from the high quality coffee beans. Got a bit of coconut and vanilla. Had kind of a weird aftertaste but it really did taste like icing, so I give them points for creativity.
4.5
Very thick and creamy, and the Abv is pretty well hidden behind the delicious taste! Overall, an excellent balance.

Good coffee on the stout base with subtle coconut flavor. Lactose provides sweetness.
