Mocha Pale Ale. Breakfast beer brewed with Cutbow Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Coffee, a hint of chocolate, and a dash of lactose for a semi-sweet and hair-raising experience.

16oz can served in a pint glass. Can is dated 10/05/23. Pours clear brassy golden with a moderately sized dense head, which settles into a thin, even skin. Smell is very much roasted coffee, so strong that it's hard to get anything else. Maybe a little breadiness.
Taste is an interesting mixture of honeysuckle and doughy sweetness with cream and coffee, slightly milk-chocolatey. Hops are kind of shuffling around in the back, a little too timid to come to the center, but undeniably there.
Mouthfeel is maye a bit thicker than I would expect for most pale ales. Overall...this is a pretty good beer, and I think it's the most successful non-stout/porter augmented with coffee that I've tasted.
