A nod to Monterey mornings. The twenty first rendition of Motor Oil is a Donut Breakfast Stout crafted from a blend of fresh and barrel aged imperial stout in collaboration with two local icons, Red’s Donuts and Acme Coffee Roasting Co. Inspired by a classic maple bar and a fresh cup of coffee, it showcases maple syrup, vanilla beans and Acme’s Motor City Espresso.

Many thx to tacosandbeer for this can!

A - Pitch black pour with dense dark caramel (but thin) lacing.

S - Sticky chocolate doughnut aroma with coffee and chocolate char.

T - Chocolate char, doughnuts, Bourbon, and coffee while ending on the sweeter, slightly boozier side.

M - Thick, silky, viscous, and leaves a residue on the lips.

O - Rock solid right here!
