Drakes Brewing - Blue Bottle Coffee Imperial Stout Update

image
From Drakes:

As mentioned previously in our blog, we’re very proud to be the first brewery to team up with Blue Bottle Coffee for a production brew. Partially because we know their name pulls weight in the coffee world, but more because our break room is often littered with the brown paper carcasses of used-up bags of Blue Bottle coffee beans.

As a follow-up to the original brew, our brewers took a field trip up to Blue Bottle’s roastery in Oakland for tour and a cupping session (settle down… that’s just what you call a coffee tasting). There the guys sought to understand the nuances of what they can expect from this beer, to dive into what makes their morning life blood so delicious, to watch the roasting process, and ultimately to just enjoy the day.  More photos.
