We are very excited that Batch has decided to re-release one of our favourite beers from the 2021 Batch / Bucket Boys Advent Calendar, Beer #5 - Coffee Pale Ale!

Coffee has long been a favourite adjunct of ours especially when it is used alongside hops in a pale beer, and this one is no exception. 

In the kettle we used coffee from Marrickville-based Black Market Coffee Roasters. Using a coarse ground (a little larger than sea salt), we cooled the wort down to 92 degrees to get the perfect level of extraction. Then we added the coffee and hops to the whirlpool for about 10 minutes in a large mesh bag. Imagine a gigantic tea bag steeping in the hot water and you have the idea.

About 5kg of coffee were added alongside 2kg of hops (Azacca, Simcoe and Cashmere).

The result is a perfect blend of coffee and hops, which have very similar aromatic and flavour properties that compliment each other perfectly!
