Denver, Colorado’s Corvus Coffee is making a name for itself as a beer-centric roaster. The company offers dry-hopped cold brew on draft and regularly hosts coffee-and-beer pairing and blending seminars at local breweries, including Epic Brewing. The following beer and coffee pairings were inspired by several of those seminars. These pairings can be enjoyed side by side or even blended together.
Saison » Pair or blend it with full-bodied Sumatran coffee beans
Saisons, especially those with fruit-forward yeast strains and floral ester profiles, are ideal pairings for the musty, earthy notes in beans from the island of Sumatra.
Imperial Stout » _Pair or blend it with full-bodied Costa Rican coffee beans _
A big bold coffee variety will stand up to a brawny beer such as an imperial stout. The coffee’s hint of smokiness will add depth to an already complex beer style.
