It’s Nitro Time for Samuel Adams & Nitro Coffee Stout

Samuel Adams Nitro Coffee Stout

Samuel Adams Nitro Coffee Stout signals the beginning of nitrogen infused cans by the Boston, Massachusetts brewery.

Seems almost redundant to mention it, but years, Guinness Nitro cans was the only player in the beer market. In recent years, Left Hand Brewing added Nitro Milk Stout bottles, while was Sam Adams launching cans. Now, Samuel Adams Nitro Coffee Stout cans are on the horizon.

The cans will use a nitro widget, similar to what Guinness uses.

A nitro widget inside this case gives our coffee stout its incredibly smooth, creamy taste. You’ll notice a swirling cascade of energy as the beer settles into your glass. The widget does the work for you, so chill, pour, & enjoy.

Samuel Adams Nitro Coffee Stout will be available in 15.2 ounce cans. The brewery has not yet announced this offering.

Style: Stout (w/ Coffee. Nitrogen Pour.)
Availability: 15.2oz Cans
Release: TBA
