Falling Knife All Nighter Imperial Golden Ale

Falling Knife All Nighter Imperial Golden Ale. With Costa Rican Natural  Coffee, Madagascar Vanilla, & Ghananian Cacao Nibs. Collaboration with Earth Rider Brewing. 


7.9 % ABV, Falling Knife Brewing, Minneapolis, MN. 

Coffee, vanilla, & cacao nibs...in a golden ale? At almost 8%? What'll they think of next? 

Clear, golden-toned, slim white head that disappears in a moment. 

In the nose: Coffee and cream comes roaring out of the nose, cacao nipping at it's heels. Vanilla lurks below. 

In the mouth: Tasty little mix going on here. Coffee and cream with a side of cocoa, and a slice of vanilla. Minor hops, medium malt. I'm not usually into golden ales, but when they're as yum a dum dum as this, that's a game changer. Wonderfully done.
