Stone Dayman coffee IPA in co

Stone IRS and Espresso IRS are out. I just had some of the espresso one; it was good, but not Big Bad Baptist good.

 

Did Dayman make it up to Ft Collins and already gone? Espresso IRS seems to be everywhere.

 

Yes, I believe Dayman has come and went!

 

Oh well, missed out. How did you like it Steve?

 

I did like it, was a bit surprised. Didn't know what to expect and it was well balanced! Very unique beer like nothing before. I had 2 bottles.

 

i had to resort to much harder means to get a bottle!!! i found someone on instagram that had posted a photo of it and sorted out a trade of a six pack of my beer!!! i think i finally have a bottle coming my way!

 

Had this on Sunday, by far the best Stone beer I've had, likely the best coffee beer I've had. I feel like most coffee beers I have (namely stouts and porters) have way too much coffee in them or don't balance well, it's like blam there it is and it probably tastes great, but it's basically the only flavor you're tasting. This beer started off with a medium, delicious, coffee flavor with just a hint of hops and smoothly glided into a citrusplosion of near perfectness with almost no bitterness. Top 50, probably top 25 beers I've ever had. Hope they make this in gigantic batches or they start marketing this as Stone Coffee Enjoy By or maybe Stone Enjoys Coffee.
Really hope this style starts to take off.
P.S. With medium notes of whiskey, that blended as well as the hops and coffee did, this may have been the end all beer as far as I'm concerned and whiskey aging is probably my least favorite barrel to put a beer in, for my tastes this would've been heavenly though.
