AKA Brunch, this medium bodied brown ale uses a rotation of locally roasted coffee beans to create a beer that drinks more like an iced coffee.

Small and brief head which completely vanishes fairly quickly. No lacing, of course. The liquid dark brown and opaque. Light shines through the center, but it's murky.
Strong black coffee aroma. No sweetness nor creaminess.
The taste is strongly coffee but there are other flavors present. There's some brown bread and light floral hop. The body is above average for a Brown Ale and the lower carbonation enhances the effect. The mouthfeel is quite smooth. The coffee feature is present throughout the tasting and the lingering aftertaste is mostly coffee as well. As a person who detests coffee, I'm adjusting my review upward as the brew shouldn't be punished for this.
