    From their Facebook page:

    "It's back! Hearty and satisfying, our Coffee Stout is the ultimate full-bodied brew. Wisconsin water, roasted malts and American hops are the natural ingredients we use to brew this bier. Then cold pressed organic coffee from Just Coffee Co-op is infused into the brew. Expect this bier to pour a deep creamy head over an ebony rich body. Notice the powerful malt bouquet balanced by a spectrum of extravagant flavor. Served at room temperature this Wisconsin Coffee Stout is guaranteed to warm even the coldest heart."

    Anyone have experience on how long after a New Glarus Facebook beer announcement that it actually hits Woodmans locations?

    It's in MSN Woodmans now. Around here, it seems to be within a day or 2 of the postings, if it's not there already.

    Thanks, been meaning to make an over-the-border New Glarus trek for awhile. This might be calling me this weekend.

    Solid coffee stout which is even more of a steal at $6.99/6 pack. Just picked one up today at the Woodman's West in Madison.

    If this is good and only 6.99 a six pack, my head might explode..
    Who is roadtripping to Wisconsin soon?

    On a related note, I thought this came out last winter and thought Road Slush was supposed to be rotating with it every other year. Evidently this is not the case as Coffee Stout is out again this winter. Anyone know what's the plan for Road Slush vs Coffee Stout right now?

    I was under the same impression as you.

    Blows my mind that it is $9 less than Bells Java Stout.

    Road slush will be back! No worries there steve! I like road slush better a little better than coffee stout personally. They are both great though...

    I like coming on here and spending just a couple minutes having my Sunday afternoon trip planned. Woodmans is 20 mins away, so yes, I will partake in some NewGlarus(and all the other surprises Kenosha offers...2breweries and uncle mikes right by woodmans). This should become a monthly occurrence amongst craftbeer fans in the NorthernBurbs..

    I remember Road Slush took a few years off a while back, seemed like it was gone ~2006-2009.

    Haven't had this one in a while, excited to go get some!

    I absolutely love this beer and glad it's back. This is the epitome of a New Glarus offering in my opinion. All flavors simply working in harmony to provide a quite enjoyable drinking experience.

    Maybe I'm the only one but I thought this beer wasn't very good. I drank half a one and then gave all the rest away. I mean, NG does some phenomenal stuff. And some great stuff. And some really good stuff. And this. And spotted cow.

    Just my 2 cents; if only to set the bar low for those who haven't tried it.
