We spent a week in Honolulu last December, and I totally fell in love with the North Shore and surfing. My favourite beer while in Hawaii was Kona’s Longboard Lager, so it’s no surprise to me that they’ve combined two of my favourite flavours – coffee and beer.
Their new Limited Release Pipeline Porter ($9/6-pack – available from September through March) is made from a blend of premium malted barley and freshly roasted 100% Kona coffee. The end result is a smooth brew with a dark appearance that goes as well with a hearty meal as it does by itself.
Kona Brewing suggests that the Pipeline Porter is perfectly paired with hearty soups and stews, roast beef sandwiches, pot roast and mashed potatoes. It’s also a perfect beer on its own, drink it to take the chill off a windy, cold day. (image source: Kona Brewing)
