Whiskey hold the coffee. It's the real breakfast of champions.

Why would you ruin a perfectly good oatmeal stout like that?

Irish coffee - one of the pleasures of self-employment...

HR? who dat?

too bitter.

if I'm going to mix anything with a stout, it would be vanilla ice cream.

That might improve some oatmeal stouts. But defiling a FW brew like that is sacrilegious.

Revolution Brewing in Chicago does a coffee porter that is incredible. It's simultaneously an amazingly good porter with the flavor of a perfect cup of coffee. I had it in the late summer but when I was there last month it was not available. I hope it's something they do regularly because I will go back for it.

Chocolate stouts are excellent with vanilla ice cream.

I realize my last post may not be obvious, but Revolution's coffee porter is a porter made with coffee, not a porter with notes of coffee. Carry on.

Lame poseurs. When you grow up go for the gusto, a line of cocaine mixed with heroin.

Or, you could have a Russian Imperial Coffee Oatmeal stout.

Mix a shot of this with your stout.

Yeech. That looks like something from the morning after

I agree with the brewing the beer with coffee, not adding it afterwards. This is what I am drinking tonight :)

Short's Cup A Joe Coffee Creme Stout

mmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

I would always put espresso shots in my stout. It's fantastic... except for the resulting temperature.

Oatmeal stout, you say?

Hence the cold brew. It's concentrated so more like espresso than a cup of coffee and it stores well in the fridge for a week.

Beer hipsters are so annoying.

Hey look!!! I made this beer using elevendytwenty pounds of Super Crystal Crazy Legs Fireclap hops, two rotten potatoes, .723 pounds of Uber Hipster Brand coffee beans, with rehydrated deionized spring water poured down the ass crack of a virgin, then I dry hopped it with 3 tampons!!!!111

Pu'leeeeze.

It's not rated very highly but I like it.

Just discovered Winter Grind, it's brilliant.

So far all of my light beer drinking friends (who like coffee) have been turned to the dark side by it.

Dunno what their distribution area looks like, but its worth hunting for.

Porous Horace: First:

I'm not a big fan of that particular one, but I do like many things that get put out by Phillip's.

Are you near Victoria, or do they have wider distribution than I'm aware of?

Avery in Boulder has one of these in their tap room right now. They described it as their regular stout blended with a cold coffee toddy. I loved it, but I like coffee and stouts. The hubby wasn't a fan.
