A Beer For Hope! Dark Ale Brewed with Cocoa Nibs & Shells, Vanilla and Jittery Joe’s Coffee! Collaboration with Shmaltz Brewing Company This year’s beer (our fifth contribution to the Reunion project and third collaboration with Shmaltz) is dark ale that leads with a bold coffee and subtle cinnamon aroma. Complex malt overtones quickly give way to a chocolate, coffee, and vanilla mix of satisfying bliss.

Rating from October 2013. Strong aroma has notes of powdery semi-sweet chocolate, roast malt, coffee and licorice. Pours a clear sienna with a fairly thick, though not overly persistent, light tan head. Delightful flavor has caramel, chocolate, roast coffee, earthy, nutty and subtle licorice notes. It is also a little sweet, but has an almost peppery tone that balances the sweetness. Smooth texture is firm, thick, and fairly fizzy. Dear Terrapin: Please do more collabs!

This is an interesting brew. Hybrid of a Belgian or fruity brown and imperial/stronger stout. Both traits of each brewer can be seen, but I'd say it leans more towards the flavor profile of Shmaltz, but without the thickness and super-heavy strength. Tartness balanced out by the sweet chocolate malts, coffee flavors, hazelnut, and other spices. Dark brown/near black appearance. Good for the fall and winter seasons.

Pours a dark brown with a small khaki head on top and leaves behind no real lace. The aroma is like hazelnut coffee - I get toffee, hazelnuts and coffee. Lots of brewed coffee. Also something a bit "off," though I'm having a hard time pinning it down; think stale coffee, perhaps, and you're close. The taste's first impression: coffee dominates again and never lets up. I also get some brown bread, toast, hazelnuts and a touch of chocolate. Mouth feel is thinner than expected. Carbonation is quite active, a bit too fizzy. I must point out I can't stand coffee.
