Want to know the secret to the perfect cup of coffee? It’s the cream! 

I start with half an inch of hazelnut creamer, then fill the mug with java. Since you pour the cream first, you don’t have to stir and it still tastes delicious!

Similarly, Heist Brewing found the secret to incredible coffee beer — conditioning it on 2 lbs of hazelnut and vanilla coffee beans per barrel. Crack the tab on this velvety Brown Ale, and rich, roasty espresso awakens your senses. Take a sip, and it’s like savoring that perfect cup of coffee on a lazy Sunday morning.

In fact, I may just replace my weekend cuppa with a can of Global Happiness (Vanilla Hazelnut) — it’s robust and flavorful, yet crushable enough to sip and still conquer my to-do list. What could be better than that?

Heist was the first craft brewery in Charlotte, NC and they’re proud winners at the World Beer Cup!
