Gazza has brewed another coffee porter, this one much more complex in the malt department than the previous one, and it’s currently sitting in tank now ready to cask up! This time we’re not bothering with the almond extract version as it was the most artificial tasting of the three (we use proper coffee and real vanilla bean extracts, the almond extract was apparently "real" but didn’t really taste that way) so this time there are 15 casks of the coffee and 15 of the coffee/vanilla for sale; get em quick as they won’t last long.

Keg at The Grapes, Thursday 15th October 2015 in the company of Geraint Black in colour with a creamy textured off white head. Roasty but with a lovely hoppiness throughout. Dry finish. As ever, yet another great beer from the boy Gazza. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8
