Beer Review - Oskar Blues Hotbox Coffee Porter


Oskar Blues - Hotbox Coffee Porter

Beer Type: American Porter - 6.50% ABV

Appearance: Oskar Blues style brown can with green printing. Beer poured a dark pitch brown color with a tan head that left lots of lacing.

Smell:
 Dark chocolate and cold brew coffee. Something a bit brighter as well though I can't place it.

First Drink:
 Roast coffee and malt with a nice tart/acidic flavor.

Mouthfeel:
 Medium with good carbonation.

Last Drink:
 Smoky roasted coffee and chocolate malt are still the main flavors. Reminds me of cola a bit for some reason?

Drinkability:
 Cold brew with some coffee malt basically.

Notes:
 Limited release in my area. A bit pricey as well for just a 4 pack of cans.

Verdict: 
3.75 out of 5. Fairly easy drinking but not my favorite porter.
