Making Beer From Coffee

Who needs vodka & redbull?! A London brewery has started producing beer brewed from Rwandan coffee beans. The beer, which has a 4% alcohol content, is targeted at adult drinkers as a cappucino drink or as a digestif. Meantime Brewery uses Fairtrade Arabica coffee beans, grown by the Maraba Co-operative in Butare Province.

Rwandan coffee has a "silky, velvety character" which the brewery believe has the right mix of flavours for the beer.
