It pours a clear black with an incredibly large, brown head that consists of very fine bubbles and lasts for several minutes leaving great lacing on the glass. The malt smells thick of coffee grounds and little else.
The starting flavor is very bitter with a creamy mouthfeel (hence the cream in the name, I suppose) and has a very distinct finish of slow dripped brewed coffee.
This is a fairly short review since this is a fairly uncomplex beer. Basically coffee, cream, and hops. Heh.
Maybe I'll write a better review at some point in the future when it isn't so late....
