Beer Review: Highland Brewing Company's Black Mocha Stout

Overall (7.2/10) - Highland's Black Mocha Stout is a mildly sweet, coffee flavored beer, with a caramel color. Brewed in Asheville, NC.

Appearance (1.4/2.0) - Caramel body, black/brown beer, medium head, head dissipates fairly quickly

Smell (1.2/2.0) - Mild smell, not strong, mildly sweet

Taste (3.2/4.0) - Bitter, mildly coffee-like, hoppy middle and end, malty, has a very clean/fresh taste for a stout, not too heavy

Mouth Feel (1.4/2.0) - Smooth and fresh, not as thick as other stouts, almost feels like an IPA, medium carbonation

Pairing - Would go great with a thick salmon filet. Side of buttery spinach.
