Our friends at Gracenote are masters at the art, science, and complexity of coffee roasting, tasting, and extraction. For this beauty, we worked in conjunction with them to select a coffee that would perfectly support and complement Abstraction. Given the characteristics of the base beer, we selected a coffee with solid structure and complexity, and with firm acidity to provide lift and balance (Kenya Kavutiri AB). The result is truly greater than the sum of its parts. It tastes like the most beautifully harmonious cup of coffee we’ve ever had, with virtually no bitterness, and densely packed coffee flavors. It is richly flavorful without weighing down the palate, and it finishes cleanly and boldly.

Can shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a deep brown to black with a small bit of off-white foam that lingers. Lovely coffee forward nose with some milk chocolate notes. Smooth and creamy, with the coffee working like a caffe latte almost. Lowish bitterness, slightly sweet. --- Beer merged from original tick of Abstraction Coffee on 20 Oct 2018 at 15:27 - Score: 8

Pours a dark, oily black, with smallish tan head, that quickly dissipates. Strong coffee aroma, with some chocolate, licorice, caramel. Flavor is chocolate, coffee, caramel, dark fruit, coconut, a touch of licorice. Very smooth and lightly sweet. Almost no bitterness at all, either in the coffee or the beer. Outstanding.
