Survival
Mode has a handsome, blackish ale with a quick-lived tan head. It’s got
a sweet mochaccino nose and a flavour that matches—sweet to bitter
movement with café con leche elements. The back end delivers a finish
that I’d have sworn was heftier than the advertised 20 IBUs. As for
vanilla, there is a whisper, but not much more than that.
This
beer has a lot to like—great strength, good balance, and solid
bitterness. I didn’t entirely love the coffee flavour, which I found to
be a bit grainy. I’d also like to know a bit about the coffee they
sourced for the endeavour, but no info was immediately forthcoming.
Rating: 7.0 out of 10.
