Its official! At long last Higher Grounds Trading Co. has made its debut in the world of beer. That’s right, Shorts Brewing Company has concocted quite the mean Coffee Creme Stout using our Mayan Magic Espresso Blend. Last night I had the pleasure of sipping on a few as we rented a bus and made the 45 minute trek to visit Joe Short and his crew and celebrate the achievement.

Notes of chocolate with a creme - like body fill the mouth as that all-to-familiar dark roasted coffee flavor graces the aftertaste with each sip. If you are in Bellaire, be sure to stop by and enjoy a pint. If not and you want to learn about the similarities between beer and coffee, visit our other blog, Bean Activist, and read the article by our good friend and expert on all things beer, Chris O’brien. Its aptly titled…….wait for it, wait for it, ………….. “Beer and Coffee.”
