This Coffee Stout was brewed to highlight adjuncts produced in Western NY. The full-bodied base stout was treated with maple syrup from Kettle Ridge Farm and Columbia Huila coffee beans roasted by Fuego Coffee Roasters. Intense aromas of a cold winter morning breakfast resonate from the glass.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Near opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Smooth palate, airy, decent fine carbonation. Fairly light bodied dark malts but not lacking on the flavour side. Dark malt cream gives way to creamy dark chocolate and coffee that seems to have interacted with the maple syrup in unfathomable ways, producing a floral and bittersweet coffee that tastes like cardamom and cinnamon were added. Airy finish leaves a spicy and floral coffee linger. If the aim was to reproduce North African coffee - good job. Not sure that was the aim though? Odd.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingman, 18/03/2026.
Black topped with a khaki head that thins to a swirl.
Nose is chocolate, light roast, coffee bean, toasted brown sugars, toffee.
Taste comprises coffee, light maple syrup, dark malts, roasted tones, brown sugar melt.
Full bodied, oily feel, light drying close with a balanced rising boost.
Okay impy of a touch overly sweet and slightly cloying at times.

Just the right amount of maple to balance the coffee. It’s sweet, bitter, smooth, slightly warming - everything I want out of a beer like this.

Can sample at a Yana tasting at Max's place. Black, tan foam. Lots of marshmallow, artificial, kinda unpleasant, chocolate, sweet, a bit sticky, full-bodied.

Tap at Peders 07/07/2023 Dark sweet roasted malty with opulent chocolate, sweet molasses, some burnt brown sugar, getting some coffee roast but rather subdued, dark chocolate malty finish. Nice but maybe expected more here.
