29 Jan Beards on Beer: Bell’s Java Stout

This has to be one of the best tasting coffee stouts available. It’s smooth and enjoyable through every sip and worth grabbing a few 6-packs.  Crafted by the Kalamazoo based Bell’s Beer, the same brewery of Two Hearted and Oberon fame, Java Stout will greet your taste buds with warm aroma of bitter coffee and chocolate tones.  It’s a medium bodied and this American Stout is sure to be one of your winter favorites.

From Bell’s Beer website:

“Java Stout uses a custom blend of coffee beans, roasted locally for us by Water Street Coffee Joint, to generate its intense flavor. Possessing an unmistakable aromatic punch, Java Stout has long been one of our most popular stouts.”
