Neon Rapter X Turning Point – Mesozoic Breakfast Stout (4.2% ABV)

Welcome back to the eternal Hoptimists.

Following our 12 beers of Christmas from Turning point, we also managed to get our hands on four cans of this interesting match up between Turning Point and Neon Raptor. Sam revealed in the chance to write this review as he is a big lover of both breweries!

  1. Name: Mesozoic Breakfast Stout
  2. Brewery: NEONRAPTOR X Turning Point
  3. Hops : Not Specified
  4. Aroma : Strong scent of espresso with an undertone of dark chocolate.
  5. Appearance :  Velvet Black with a coffee head when poured.
  6. Body : Medium to full bodied, well carbonated, very smooth but low head retention.
  7. Taste : Intense shot of espresso followed by a slight chocolate and lactose giving it a strong mocha finish.

Yes, more please! This a very good well balanced breakfast stout, it had enough coffee to wake the Dinosaurs from the Mesozoic period and I was quite upset I gave the others a can each as at 4.3% I could have quite easily had another!

Our overall rating: 4.0/ 5.0
