What the brewers say

Working the angles of several of our favorite flavors while taking direction from tasty little coconut-lemon-curd cakes at our favorite baker. Aged with coconut, freshly zested Meyer lemon, Counter Culture Morita cof-fee, and a dose of Madagascar vanilla bean.

What our panel thought

Aromas of chocolate, vanilla, and lemon. The sweet stout and spice character come together quite well, cre-ating the impression of sweet Thai coffee. Bordering on cloying, but complex enough to make it work. The spice character creates a unique and complex beer.

What our editors thought

Lemon zest is an unexpected but bright and curious addition on the nose. The body is thick and the sip sweet but with a unique and singular herbal flavor. Interestingly like no other stout we’ve had.
