Coffee and Hazelnut Imperial Stout
A big old quest always begins with coffee. This quest takes you on a journey to two of the North Shore’s finest establishments, bringing the quality and goodness of roasts from @coffeeheroine to the robust strength of one of Beva Brewing’s Imperial Stouts. To complete this quest, try a flagon of our Imperial Stout conditioned on coffee from Coffee Villain, cocoa nibs, and hazelnut flavouring and enjoy its warming effects! ☕️ ⚔️🌙
This beer is a collaboration between us and our good friends at Coffee Villian - our favourite coffee shop on the North Shore! If you haven’t paid them a visit and tried their brews, you’re really missing out! This beer is now available on tap and to go in our tasting room. See less

8oz shared with Andriy.
Aroma: very roasty, a lot of coffee, some seeds and vanilla, chcocolate. Not sure where hazelnut is.
Taste: along thesame lines, moderately thick and sweet. Finishes with noticeable bitterness, ashy.
Overall: good for the style, but I prefer less bitterness.

Dark brown, thin head, big coffee nose with artificial hazelnut. Good body, again lots of coffee, malt sweetness and medium bitterness. I’d rather the hazelnut squirt wasn’t in there, honestly…just go full speedway with this and you’d have a better beer.

On tap at The Magnet. Pours black with a tan head. Huge waft of crunchy green peppers on the nose with some roasted malts underneath. Flavour has more of that green pepper nonsense with some roasted malts, vanilla beans, and some nuttiness. I expected a bit better from Beva, this is poor.

Pour black with full dark tan head. Aromas of mocha, earthy coffee, sugared nuts, and slick roasted malts. Flavors of creamy coffee, roasted malts, and sugar with hazelnuts showing up in the finish. Quite good.

On tap at Beva, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has notes of medium roast coffee, dry cocoa powder, and a touch of artificial hazelnut. Flavour has a solid roasted malt base, with plenty of coffee, some cocoa, but the hazelnut flavouring somewhat ruins the malt complexity with a rather artificial character. I know it’s hard to use real nuts, but the flavourings almost never do justice to the real thing, and this is no exception. There’s a good beer here that would be better without the hazelnut flavouring. As is, this doesn’t really work for me.
