One of the local purveyors of beer and food that i like to visit here in Austin is the Black Star Co-op. The food is great. We can take the kiddo there. And i love their brews. Yesterday, in honor of a "Twin Peaks" marathon they decided to screen in the pub, the brewers took their excellent porter, the Recalcitrant Dockhand, and added some coffee and cherry juice to create Agent Cooper. The beer is dark and medium bodied and smells of chocolate, malts, and the aforementioned coffee and cherry. A swirl of chocolate and caramel notes mix swimmingly with the hints of coffee and cherry, and an all-around roastiness prevails. This beer is awesome, and i believe just a one-off batch. So, if you live in the Austin area, get over there and try it before it's too late.
Visit the brewer.
