Handwritten notes: I know that I called other beers "not-quite beer" because they had coffee in them. But this is an exception. There is a tangible smoky-malt flavour to off-set the coffee. That is, this is a marriage of two flavours rather than one dominating the other. Unless that's what they're into.
