A full-bodied, decadently smooth coffee beer in collaboration with local roaster Darkwoods.
7 different malts combine with 3 different coffees added at 2 different points during the brew to create a sweet toffee, rich fruit and chocolate depth, accented with notes of vanilla, and hazelnut.
Brewed with coffee, cocoa nibs and vanilla, this beer is designed with texture, aroma and deliciousness in mind. Brewed to celebrate locality and a shared philosophy in creative quality.

Superb! Got coffee going on, and I'm getting a hint of licorice comfits. Nice and roasty and lovely.

330ml bottle from Magic Rock online. Black-brown colour, beige foam head leaving lacing and aroma of coffee grounds, chocolate, malty. Taste is dark malty, chocolate, lots of coffee, with milky, vanilla, nutty notes and slightly earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry light dusty bitter finish. Quite drinkable.

Can from Park Fever, Hither Green. Dark brown/almost black pour with a beige head. Oodles of dark roast coffee in the nose with a modicum of ash and dark chocolate which segues into the flavours with some light notes of licorice and ripe dsrk fruits. Smooth, roasty mouthfeel. Tasty stuff.
