    Hands down, the best beer from Arcadia iv'e had and one of the best coffee beers i've ever had.

    I haven't tried that, but I do sometimes add a few tablespoons of good-quality cold brew coffee to a snifter of stout. I've gotten decent results, but I'm also not terribly picky.

    Bent Paddle Cold Press Black is great. Not sure where they distribute though.

    Twin Cities, Duluth, & Superior, WI with a few other scattered areas in between for the most part. Shouldn't be too hard to trade for, I still hear about the occasional store or two that has it on the shelf. If memory serves, it went for around $23-$25/bottle in the cities.

    One of my personal favorites is Central Waters brewhouse coffee. Great price point and isn't usually that hard to find.

    I enjoy Dogfish Head Beer for Breakfast, bought recently. I also agree with Central waters Brewhouse coffee which is a seasonal and Surly Cacao Bender

    I always have lagunitas cappuccino stout bombers in the fridge just for morning drinking. Perfect beer to drink at 730 in the morning while your kids start tearing up the house. Caught it for $3.50/bomber in Chicago

    KBS for breakfast definitely hit the spot or try breakfast stout if you'd like it to be more coffee forward.

    Came here to post this, and it has an ABV (5.5%) that is much easier to deal with before noon. Its generally my beer of the day at annual fishing/camping weekends. Not earth shattering but easy to find, comes in a can, and is easy to drink.

    I will 3rd CW Brewhouse coffe stout. Great coffee stout, incredible price. Stock up when it hits. According to CW release calendar for this year, that's getting released in April. Sweet.

    Funky Buddha Morning Wood. Not easy to get but it's breakfast in a bottle.

    I've gone through dozens so far. The current winner is Epic's SOB. A little big first thing in the morning at 8% (and I'm not sure about it's availability), but this beer kicks ass.
