The Coffee Run Stout lands in the overlap between coffee drinkers and beer drinkers and doesn't apologise to either camp. Heaps Normal brewed it with cold brew made from Floozy Coffee's Golden Hour blend, and the coffee is genuinely present rather than a background suggestion. It pours deep, opaque brown with a creamy head. The aroma is direct: fresh coffee, roasted malt, and dark chocolate, with no synthetic sweetness. On the palate, coffee bitterness arrives first, sharp and clean, then opens up to caramel and a fruit note somewhere between cherry and plum before the rich stout base comes through underneath. The finish carries the coffee through to the end with a pleasant acidity and a caramel note on the fade. Each can contains trace caffeine, roughly 20 per cent of an espresso shot. Vegan, low gluten, and preservative-free.
