Beer Geek Brunch Weasel

Tap to rate

An imperial coffee stout brewed with Kopi Luwak, an Indonesian coffee from beans that passed through a civet, in a fine brown topped by a cappuccino-coloured head. Vanilla, burnt almonds and coffee make up the aroma, with a high level of acidity. The palate shows lots of dry dark chocolate, vanilla and clean cacao, plus an impression of fresh wet soil, and everything ends in a very dry finish.
