This fun little experiment, involved ageing Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee beans for 3-months in freshly dumped bourbon barrels that previously held our DIVINE INTERVENTION (barrel-aged Tripel). The barrel aged beans were then lightly roasted and added to a brand new beer. The complex fruity and floral nature of this coffee varietal is enhanced with vanilla and caramel notes from the barrel ageing, which in turn complements the fruity and spicy Belgian ale base.

Can, huge thanks Fil! Murky golden body, off-white head. Huge aroma, coffee technically, beans mostly. Bit phenolic, dry, prickly taste, older coffee, dry, bit astringent herbal bitter finish, and then alcohol hits.... Kinda works, mostly not.

473 ml can. Pours amber with moderate head. Aromas of quince, stoned fruit jelly, soft toasted malts and possibly some ground coffee. Flavors of jellied fruit, light earthy Belgian yeast, earthy coffee, and doughy malts. Nice when really cold, but not really much Belgian or barrel notes…

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Dark blond colour, hazy to cloudy. Mild aroma of paper and coffee. Good body, highly carbonated, maybe a hint of anise, otherwise no trace of Tripel, light liquorice and vegetables, some hot alcohol in the finish. Weird.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazed gold with small white head. Drip coffee underlies everything, not picking up any bourbon notes from the bean soaking, some mild Belgian tripel yeast, hint of booze. Just overall an average beer that’s gimmicky, but inoffensive.
