I have family in Kalamazoo MI, so I had to try this one just for the name alone since I have been to Kazoo every year for as long as I can remember.

Pours a deep black with a thin dark tan head. Head quickly dissipates leaving swirl of milky foam on top. Spotty lacing.

Aroma is relatively mellow. I am getting a sweetness with a bit of chocolate and coffee. Maybe even a hint of licorice.

Taste is rich and satisfying. I am getting roasted malts on my first sip. This works it's way into rich chocolate and coffee mix.

Mouth feel is milky and smooth even but the body on this beer is relatively light for this style with light to medium carbonation.

Overall a very tasty satisfying stout. Would have another. Next time I am in Kalamazoo, I would love to try it on tap!
