Field Recordings X Darkwoods : IPA Coffee Sour

With the help of Dark Woods Coffee we have been incredibly lucky to be able to source Sebastian Ramirez, El Placer Colombia Pink Bourbon IPA Coffee Beans. El Pacer, owned by Sebastian Ramirez is a pioneering coffee farm situated at over 1700m in Calarca, Quindio, focusing on modern processing and big flavours.

The coffee is unique in its production. Using a 200 hour carbonic ‘honey’ maceration with the addition of hops and beer yeast in order to extract the coffee bean from the cherry fruit. This process imparts flavours of pine, bramble, hops and mango to this special coffee.

We’ve taken the process one step further and infused the coffee into a clean sour beer with a touch of lemon zest. The result is a highly complex beer. Smooth, slightly acidic, a touch sweet and rounded with a backdrop of fresh, light roast coffee. Red berry, mango, smooth chocolate and a drying tannin finish are elevated by the beer’s low carbonation, gentle sourness and zest tones. Show Less
