Coffee & Doughnut Stout
Our annual winter collaboration with Zimmah is back, featuring a special guest: Queens Pastry! We’ve brewed Stakeout, a coffee and doughnut stout that makes the perfect undercover dessert. Brewed using a classic stout base, and with the addition of Natural Brazil coffee beans from, Brazil, and real doughnuts from Queens, you can expect a sweet, dessert-like beer with hits of coffee, chocolate, and doughnut. It’s the perfect treat for the winter season.

LOTS of coffee on the nose, plus some chocolate, caramel, brown sugar and bread. That coffee dominates the taste, but after a few sips I've settled in and am loving it. It's got a surprisingly savoury finish that balances the initial sweetness.

From a 375ml can on 15/7/2025. Pours a deep brown with a small to medium light tan head. The nose feature a good whiff of coffee with some light roasty notes. Coffee also dominates the taste, with dark chocolate, a bit of caramel and perhaps just a hint of the promised donut. Finishes with a light roasty bitterness. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not super dessertish, but very nicely balanced and pretty assertive for the size. Good stuff.
