Coffee Brews.

All of the usual suspects...can't believe no one has thrown out Big Bad Baptist...right up there with BCBCS in my opinion.

 

Speedway is probably my top, then Funky Buddha Maple Bacon Coffee Porter, Founders Breakfast, Wake n Bake, and BORIS. Honestly, I prefer those straight up coffee stouts to even BCBCS, KBS, and other bourbon coffee stouts.

 

My favorite style by far I would rank my favorites as follows:

Short's Cup of Joe
Beer Geek Brunch Weasel
Maumee Bay Total Eclipse
Peche Mortel
Right Brain CEO Stout
Founders Breakfast Stout

I can and have drunk a ton of these through the years. So many options out there but barreled versions I prefer less as they tend to overshadow the true reason I drink a coffee stout which is for the rich coffee flavor.

 

I just had my first BCBCS of the season last night, and it was perfect. Best coffee brew I've had, as well as the best barrel aged stout.

 

BCBCS
FBS
Surly Coffee Bender

 

Williamsburg Alewerks Cafe Royale
Peche Mortel
Speedway Kopi Luwak and Boubon Barrel
Cigar City Cubano Espresso Brown

 

Founders Breakfast Stout. Thanks to @logjammin I got to try Parade Ground Coffee Porter by Tin Roof Brewing. Pretty doggone delicious!

 

Wake n Bake will always be my favorite. My surprise treat coffee beer this year has been Bruery's Mash and Grind. Outstanding combination of delicious strong coffee with a bourbon barreled English barleywine.

 

FBS and Peche Mortel

 

Founders Breakfast Stout
Epic's Big Bad Baptist
Backcountry's Breakfast Stout
Avery's Tweak
Great Divide's Espresso Yeti
Terrapin's Wake n Bake
Port's Board Meeting

 

Epic's Big Bad Baptist has been my go-to coffee beer this season.

 

No it wasnt draft only

 

bells java stout

 

Dave, did you get a chance to try Stone's Espresso IRS?

 

Santa Fe Imperial Java Stout

 

FBS, WnB, Speedway, Stone Espresso IRS, CCB Cubano Espresso, and Victory at Sea have been my favorites. I had Black Xantus yesterday, which was pretty good too.

 

What would you do if I told you that I know a place that has both Stone Espresso IRS and Peche Mortel in stock. RIGHT NOW.

 

Be remorseful that I am working all day :-(

 

Ok... What if I could tell you that they've had both for as long as I can remember and that you could most likely grab both on a day off?

 

My long short-list of coffee brews includes: Wolaver's Alta Gracia, FBS, KBS, BCBCS, Victory at Sea, Stone Espresso, Yeti Espresso, Peche Mortel, Speedway, Coffee Bender, Dayman IPA, Big Wood's Morning Wood
