Notes

Add strong cold brewed Hatian coffee (1:1.5 coffee to water ratio) to taste at kegging. Age on 1 American medium and 1/2 American medium plus oak spirals. Add Bulliet bourbon to taste at kegging. It ended up being 8 ounces of bourbon and 8 ounces of concentrated cold brew. This beer is fantastic!!
