Cookies and cream, Cheese and Crackers, Peanut Butter and Jelly... but perhaps the most powerful of all famous pairings is the Hop and the Bean. Which is why we’re releasing Java the Hop for May The Fourth (that’s Star Wars Day in the pop culture nerd
world). Together with our friends at Coava Coffee in Portland we hand selected two single-origin, masterfully roasted coffees to pair with two, masterfully grown hop varieties. The combinations are legendary, the flavors are hoppy, other-worldly, fruity, bitter, roasty, galactic, floral, and crisp. Each 4-pack of this super-limited beer contains two cans of each variety.

Beer pours a clean, unfiltered light amber. Nose is fruity hops plus the coffee. Taste is iced cofee with cream and a dash of hop flavor plus bitterness. Body is super smooth, good carbonation. Finish is clean with no off flavors. Too bad this is a one-off and not part of the rotation.

Taster flight at Fort George. Cloudy orange golden pour, thin white foamy head. Coffee prominent in the aroma and taste. Motueka brings light floral notes to this, juicy bits , but mostly cofee and the associated bitterness. Not my thing.
