Lager brew style pale ale made with espresso from Narrative Coffee. The coffee is a Diego Bermudez roast from Cauca, Colombia grown on Diego's farm "El Paraiso". It was processed through Manhattan roasters in the Netherlands through an anaerobic thermal shock regime to keep as much flavor and aroma as possible.

On nitro tap at Stemma, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out subdued earthy coffee, nitrogenation, and biscuity malt. Flavour is very subdued on the coffee — the nitro imports a metallic character that is unbecoming of the coffee character. It's smooth on the palate but the flavours aren't great. Rather subpar.

Poured from nitro tap. Slightly hazed gold with small white head. Mild cold brew coffee, otherwise quite clean and bland. Coffee character is decent.

On Tap at the Bellingham brewery/taproom. Slightly foggy deep golden. Fine creamy nitro head. Very faint pale ale character, but nice subtle slightly sweet cold coffee notes. Subtle and mild. Quite nice.
