Angucho is our first coffee beer. As with many of our blends, the idea came first from tasting through our ripening barrel stock, with several barrels putting us in mind of the flavours seen in some lighter-roast specialty coffees.

The beer is a blend of four brews produced in July and August 2020 and August 2022. The worts were made using small quantities of roasted and crystallised barley to produce dark amber beers with flavours reminiscent of red fruits, cocao, nuts, and coffee. The wort was boiled with aged hops to provide a restrained hop flavour and to allow for good production of acidity by the lactic acid bacteria present in our spontaneous fermentations.
