Upright Coffee Stout - Barrel Aged Upright Brewing Portland, Oregon
Beer style: Saison / Farmhouse - Dark Ref: ratebeer.com Jun2024
Common descriptors are This is the first release of the brewery’s Coffee Stout. The beer started last winter as a full-bodied beer openly fermented with our house saison yeast at cool temperatures to maintain a smooth profile. It then spent most of the year maturing in four former wine casks, drying slightly. The casks were then blended with the addition of cold press coffee prepared by Chris Brady of Extracto Coffee Roasters. The finished beer is layered with flavors and aromas of ash, oak, roast, dark fruit and herbs. While intended to be enjoyed young, the Coffee Stout will also cellar well over one year.
