Local Beans
In our Coffee Porter, we use a special blend of beans from Pierce Brothers Coffee from Greenfield, MA. This local coffee roaster air-roasts all their coffee and uses only 100% organic and Fair Trade beans. This exclusive blend created by Lefty was designed to leave a smooth finish in the beer without being overly bitter. You will find this special blend in Lefty's coffee pot each morning!
