Everyone loves to joke about beer for breakfast, while we prefer to take it seriously. The goal here is simple; make a beer that will go with a meal at breakfast. Coffee was a no brainer, as was getting our coffee from our friends at Mothership coffee roasters. Next, we added oats, literally the same rolled oats you’d find in oatmeal and breakfast bars. Followed by a couple different types of malted wheat (cereal and toast), lactose (the sugar found in milk), with a touch of smoked malt (adds a savory quality you’d get from bacon or grilled ham). Finally, we mash a lot of roasted and chocolate malts to layer coffee, brownie, cocoa, and milk chocolate qualities.
Mash all of this together, and it’s glorious. A rich and savory imperial stout with loads of dark chocolate, brownie crusts, and coffee…….Also, did you know this shit was almost called “Party all Night”...?
