In his honor, we brewed a richer, more complex version of the beer and aged it in select bourbon barrels for more than two years, harmonizing its flavors with a light touch of organically grown vanilla beans from Mexico and coffee from Finca Vista Hermosa in Guatemala, sourced and roasted by our longtime friends and collaborators at Coffee Collective in Copenhagen.

This Bourbon barrel-aged version of Earl, our coffee stout, features custom-roasted coffee from Owen Miller of East Alstead Roasting in East Alstead, N.H., who will join us Fri., Sat., and Sun. to share his coffees. Owen interned here at the brewery in 2010, so his return and collaboration on this beer bring his journey full circle.
For Earl’s namesake beer, we brewed a richer, more complex version of the beer and aged it in select Bourbon barrels for nearly two years. The harmonization of intentional coffee character and careful barrel selection yields a rich but balanced experience.
