Step aboard a nightliner tour bus and you’ll immediately realise there are two things fuelling its rock’n’roll passengers: beer and coffee. For this journey we recruited expert London coffee roasters, Curved Brick Co, to help deliver the intense and complex flavours of this rich coffee porter. Buckle up for an abundance of dark chocolate and forest fruits hints and enjoy the ride.

On tap during BPBW. Deep brown, no head. Nose is coffee, no surprise, chocolate and some grains. In taste it’s big fat cold brew coffee, leaving no space to anything else but some chocolate at the end. Might be a tad one dimensional, but definitely very well made.

On tap at Crewe Dog, Crewe. It pours a verk dark murky brown with a large beige head. Aroma is mainly milky coffee. Mouthfeel beigns as roasted malts with some bitterness, then coffee comes through to dominate, and finally chocolate joins the party. There are some dark fruits in there as well. Finish is quite bitter with coffee grounds. Nice !
