Noir Coffee Milk Stout and Imperial Pumpkin Sleigh’r, In Bottles and On Draft This September
EUGENE, Ore.—Aug. 26, 2015—Ninkasi Brewing Company
crafts up two new releases to help welcome the cooler months, capturing
favorite flavors of the season. This September, craft beer drinkers
will find
Noir, a Coffee Milk Stout, and
Imperial Pumpkin Sleigh’r, a Dark Doüble Alt Ale with pumpkin and brown sugar, in bottles and on tap.
Featuring
two distinct brews of the Pacific Northwest, Ninkasi introduces Noir, a
Coffee Milk Stout to its Special Release Series. “I have been brewing
beers with coffee
since the mid-nineties and have always loved the rich creaminess milk
sugar imparts on beers and how it melds with coffee,” says Jamie Floyd,
Ninkasi founding brewer and co-founder. “Last year, we collaborated on a
Coffee Milk Stout with Sierra Nevada and
enjoyed the beer so much, we decided to brew one of our own.”
Brewed with rich, roasted malts and blended with smooth cold brewed coffee from Portland’s
Stumptown Coffee Roasters,
this beer is a satisfying take on a Milk Stout. “The cold brew process
allows this
beer to have a delicious coffee flavor without the added acidity,” adds
Floyd. Noir can be found in 22-ounce bottles, Ninkasi’s 12-ounce
Variety 12-Pack, and on draft September through December.
For
the pumpkin beer lovers, Ninkasi introduces Imperial Pumpkin Sleigh’r
to its Rare & Delicious Series. Serving up a fall-time rendition of
the brewery’s winter seasonal,
this Imperial Dark Doüble Alt Ale is brewed with 300 pounds of organic
pumpkin and a generous helping of dark brown sugar.
“Last
year we brewed Imperial Sleigh’r and quickly realized it would be the
best base for a pumpkin beer,” explains Floyd. “This beer is bigger and
bolder with the addition
of organic Willamette Valley-grown Pumpkin from Stahlbush Island Farms
and a dose of brown sugar for caramelization to round out the flavors.”
Featuring artwork by
Ninkasi’s Artist in Residence, Neal Williams, Imperial Pumpkin Sleigh’r will be available in exclusive 22-ounce bottles and on draft starting in September.
