We’re waiting for the shitty fridge to be moved out to the balcony so the cooling system can be cool. How can that be the solution? Why not replace it with a fridge that works in the space that was constructed? Why not buy an appropriate appliance in the first place? In the meantime, beer! My imperial stout seems to be cold enough, although it looks like it did get knocked over today. Hopefully this morning so it’s had some time to relax. It’s a promising one too, from Garage, very trustworthy. It is a coffee stout, which can be a little overwhelming, but I’m willing to give it a shot with its vanilla essence. I hope Affogato Tears doesn’t leave me in tears…nah, like I said, it’s Garage.
A little jumpy, so maybe not felled too long ago. No disasters, just a few drops over the edge. Although extra-bubbly on the side of the glass, the bubbles appear static and the head maintains itself well. It’s a chocolate milk kind of head, mostly creamy with a few intruding bigger bubbles. The liquid is going for dark coffee colored rather than black, but that makes sense with its development. There is a good whiff of coffee too it, although it’s not as roasty as most coffee. Maybe cold brew leaves the aroma a little watered down. The first sip rushes in with the coffee flavor, but some vanilla creamer is right on its tail. Given the alcohol content it’s not a surprisingly heavy beer; while not syrupy it lies heavy on the tongue and slurps its way down the throat. The chill and vanilla really solidify the connection to iced coffee or frappuccino for me, more than simple cold brew.
