For our second collab with Quarrelsome Coffee (St. Louis, MO), they selected a natural process Ethiopian coffee they call Ayele Fulasa (named after the producer). It's from the famed Yirgacheffe region with what they describe as "expansive florals and a lush wine-like quality with notes of orange blossom, milk chocolate, white grape." We wanted to really showcase these fantastic beans, so rather than a stout we infused them into a bigger version of our English Brown Ale (Drink it Down). The result is coffee-forward, without being roasty, highlighting the unique fruity and vinous notes!

16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, razor thin ring of head. Aroma is coffee, dark roast. Taste brings more coffee flavors, but they fall off quicker than I would have thought, revealing some of the nutty brown ale underneath. Still plenty of bitter rost coffee to go around. * Disclaimer: I am not a coffee drinker, so to me coffee is just coffee
