A Note on This Beer
My buddy Steve and I used to pull all-nighters to finish our homework in college. We’d each have a full pot of coffee, blast Metallica, and let out occasional high-pitched screams just to keep ourselves “in the zone.”
We’re a little more chill these days, preferring to hang out over a couple of relaxing cold beers and not forcing ourselves to stay up to greet the sun. And there’s usually no screaming — but that changed when I shared a few cans of today’s All Nighter Imperial Stout.
Steve let out the loudest shriek I’ve ever heard once he realized it was a brand-new collab from Portland’s Gigantic Brewing and Seattle’s Reuben’s Brews — a.k.a. two of the most respected names in the region’s craft scene!
Actually, it’s kind of surprising these breweries haven’t paired up before. They frequently show up on PNW “best” lists, and both have racked up GABF Medals for their scream-worthy flavor mastery.
And as Steve and I can tell ya, All Nighter delivers! Between the notes of caramel and dark fruit, you can really taste the rich chocolate and cold brew coffee that those award-draped breweries used to amp up today’s creation. Just a touch of milk sugar smooths it out to velvety heaven!
Unless you’re afraid of their enthusiastic howls, you’ll want to share this 8% ABV dark caramel-espresso goodness with your own craft-loving buddy. This exciting collab isn’t leaving the West Coast except through Tavour, so you’ll need them to vouch that you actually got to taste it!
Which also means you should grab your stash now. ‘Cause once those other craft fans get word that a small supply of this mighty collab made it out of the PNW, there’s no way it’s gonna last all night!
This beer is too new for ratings!
