This dry, Irish-style Stout was already smooth, roasty, and very drinkable, and then we added coffee to it. We acquired a beautiful Brazilian/Colombian, medium-light roast coffee from Fuel America in Worcester and added it to the brew 36 hours before packaging. In effect, we made a cold-brew, using our Stout as the liquid! An already amazing brew turned into something heavenly, with beautiful coffee and cocoa notes complimenting the Stout underneath. Love coffee? Love beer? Look no further!

Can pour from the brewery. It's a very, very dark brown-mahogany (almost opaque) with light sparkle, 2-finger beige foamy head with fair retention and thin ring of lacing. Aroma is strongly bitter roasted coffee (fairly ash tray) over mild semi-sweet in the background. Taste is a bit less ashy than aroma but toward that end with a generalized roasted malt in the background. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average-to-lively carbonation and lightly bitter roasted finish. Overall, the coffee is far too bitter/ashy for my liking but great strength in both aroma and flavor for the ABV! A bit too carbonated.
