Profile
Smell
The roasted coffee is first and foremost, smelling rich and mouth watering like the best medium roast cup of wakey juice. Some dusty baker’s chocolate notes with sweet cocoa, vanilla beans, earthy and leafy hop, and a rich boozy snap of bourbon on the edge.
Taste
Rich and powerful roasted coffee flavour is well paired with the sweet vanilla bean flavour and the sharp undertone of the bourbon. The best of both worlds — a cup of fortified coffee with the best bourbon you could add combined with the earthy hops to provide the bitter, leafy flavour of the most interesting coffee. Each works to balance the beer for a great experience of beer and coffee separate but working together.
Pairing
This is a dessert beer if ever there were one. Get a slice of pound cake and a scoop of rich vanilla ice cream for some resonance.
Sight
Pours darker than the thoughts a grad student has before their thesis defense. A thin layer of caramel tint white foam rests on top.
