These are pics from St. Patrick's Day at Stubby's Pub and Grill, Milwaukee, WI. Tallgrass Brewing Company made 4 very special Firkins to commemorate the holiday and one of them came to Wisconsin. This Firkin is their take on Irish Coffee. Let me tell you it was nothing short of fantastic!! The head brewer used their Buffalo Sweat Stout as the base, then added lactose sugar, oak cubes that have been soaked in Jameson Whiskey, and coffee to enhance the coffee notes. The coffee aroma was quite apparent. Had the glass not been cold, I would have thought it was a hot cup of coffee. The taste was amazingly smooth and the very last taste that came across my palate was the sugar. I sat right next to the Firkin for a few hours.
