This special edition of Broken Dream is brewed with our very own bourbon barrel aged coffee. We source the finest green beans, aged them in wet barrels for at least 12 months before roasting in small batches when required. We experimented with the coffee in 'Blacklight Banana' - but this full batch of Broken Dream really allows the flavour to shine through.

19.04.2017, 0,33l bottle @ home:
Nice brown bubbly-creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly rich, espresso, minerals, dark malts, toast, chocolate, roasted grain, dark sugar, caramel. Taste is slightly dry mineraly, roasted grain, minerals, burnt toast, grass, roasted coffee, hay, paper, metal tank, cocoa. Medium bitterness, slightly watery and burnt metallic mouthfeel. Fair enough, a bit disappointing.

Bottle from Oddbins Beer Shop, Blackheath. Pours black with a light tan head. Huge coffee in the nose with a splash of smoke and cola. Deep, smoky sweet coffee in the flavour with a smooth back up of dark chocolate and cocoa. Exceedingly good stuff.

Opaque dark brown beer, tidy tan head. Airy palate, fairly dry and has decent fine carbonation. Dry dark malts, plenty of earthy coffee. Tangy dark fruits into very modest bourbon. Dry finish. Yeah - it’s alright but for me just another dry coffee bomb. Wanted something softer and certainly more bourbon.

Bottle at beerlovers. Pours black small grey head. Smell is intense coffee. Taste is sharp toasty coffee, not much bourbon. Too much coffee for me.
