Good Morning. Black Strong and early in the morning. That describes our preference for coffee and beer. Fortunately for us, our good friends at Cherrybean Coffee Co have helped us fuse the two into a mighty tasty beverage. Just across the border in tiny Parker, South Dakota, Cherrybean Coffee Roasters roast 100% organic and fair trade beans in extremely small batches. The coffee is hand-selected by our brewers and carefully added to this stout at several stages, from mash tun to maturation tank. Finished with an authentic Brau Bros' strain, Cherry Bean Stout is truly a unique ale! We at Brau Bros are very fortunate to have the opportunity to team up with a small town coffee roaster who takes coffee as seriously as we take beer. The folks at Cherry Bean Coffee Co., like us, make extremely small batches with great care and attention to detail. We’ve worked closely to select and roast a unique blend of beans for this ale. An eclectic ingredient list features a variety of fermentables. Roasted barley, with coffee and chocolate malt is showcased. However, a sizeable amount of wheat helps with body and head retention. Dark candi sugar, confected at the brewery, is employed late in the boil to build complexity and is reminiscent of dark chocolate and ripe plum. Finally, multiple roasts of Cherry Bean’s organic, fair trade coffee are added to the ale. Partially during the brewing process, in an effort to claim nuance and character only achieved with the heat of the brewing process, and partially towards the end of fermentation, to capture aromatics as well as classic coffee flavor without extensive bitterness. Melding roasted coffee and roasted barley, we hope to bring out the best in each, creating a unique and tasty brew!
