Uncommon Grind ("Mountains-to-Sea" Variant)

Our Uncommon Grind project has evolved into a really nifty exploration of interplay between coffee & beer, and we’re excited to share this next step in the evolution of intermingling flavors with you.

This special variant started life as an imperial IPA that was added to Brown Sugar Rum barrels (which had previously aged raw green coffee for our annual release of Uncommon Grind IPA each winter), but was then finished with fresh “Mountains-to-Sea” blend coffee from our friends at Joe Van Gogh instead of dry hops.

Look for notes of rich caramel, smooth vanilla & nutty almond, with a touch of balancing bitterness on the backend, and a subtle brightness of raspberry & lemon.
