Collab with Caravan for the Uppers and Downers festival
Inspired by the classic black coffee and marmalade on toast breakfast, this beer was brewed to highlight waste in the food industry. Much of the fermentable sugars for the yeast were taken from stale rye bread steeped overnight in water, whilst the orange zest used in both the boil and conditioning was excess zest from fruit processed for our seasonal IPA Bloody ‘Ell. Finally, we conditioned the beer on waste coffee from a roasting run at Caravan Coffee Roasters.

Tap. Unclear amber color with white head. Aroma is coffee, light roast. Taste is coffee, bready, light black bread. Silky mouthfeel with fine-bubbled carbonation. Fun, but not a Kvass at all...
