I actually judged this beer at the Cascade Cup 2019 and it was phenomenal !!! I would say it's the single best homebrew I've ever had in 30 years and the highest score I've ever given a beer... Also one of the top 3 best coffee beers I've ever had! Congrats

Fantastic beer and such a simple recipe. The key is the cold brewed coffee he used...

Brewed this as my second beer ever, and it is a great one. Pretty fool proof and it turned out solid.

OG: 1.060
FG: 1.021
Couldn't tell you any other stats.

I do wish I would get some more coffee and sweet cream notes, but I am chalking that up to me not fully knowing what I'm doing yet and not controlling temperature as well as I should. Once I get some more brews under my belt I'll be looking to go back to this and see how I can do better next time.
