We're partnering with other B Corps to Brew The Change we wish to see in the world. we've collaborated with Ethical Bean, a Vancouver based coffee roaster and fellow B Corporation, to create an unconventional coffee-infused rye IPA with a light caramel malt flavour and a big juicy hop aroma. This beauty is complimented by a fruity, floral aroma from a cold steep of Ethical Bean's " Exotic blend of organic, fair trade coffee beans.

650mL bottle, pours a deep dark orangey brown with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy hops, coffee and some butter. Flavour is along the same lines, being contaminated with a little diacetyl, followed by earthy hops and coffee. The butter is less and less pronounced with each sip. Decent.

650 ml bottle. Pours a darkish mahogany with moderate head. Aromas of brackish fruity hops and dull toasted malts. The coffee doesn’t add here... Flavors of acidic coffee and grain. Why rye and coffee in an IPA?

Sadly disappointing. Light diacetyl in both nose and palate, boozy and hoppy… but nothing blends

@The American. Muddy, ugly light brown. Thin head. Fair bit of coffee on the nose. Bitter, touch of rye and a whole lot of coffee roast. That coffee is overpowering, the beer is kind of out of balance.

Bottle - Coffee and some citrus notes. Cloudy copper with a decent beige head. Nice coffee and citrus bitterness with a dry finish. Light malty notes and a nice finish. Balanced for what it is
