There is a darkest time of year, and for that time we need beer. Not a golden, effervescent, belly-filling swill of a brew, but a dark, dank, barrel-aged libation. As black as midnight on the longest night, and robust enough to warm even the weakest of souls. Add coffee to combat the instinctual hibernation that is inevitable at this time of year. You may find this in Java Cask Coffee Bourbon Stout, or Speedway Stout. If you are an Alaskan you should drink Anchorage Brewing Company’s Darkest Hour Imperial Stout with coffee. Happy Winter Solstice, the light begins to come back tomorrow!
Cheers to return of the light! Celebrate Solstice!
