A Note on This Beer
Perennial’s deluxe espresso sipper, Sump Coffee Stout, starts with the brewery's incredibly smooth, dark chocolate Stout base. On its own, this Stout holds multitudes of flavors: fudgy cacao, nutty pecan, toffee, creamy vanilla, and even a hint of sweet pear.
But, that’s only half the story. Perennial then added coffee grown in the Monte Alban region of Oaxaca, Mexico. Which was first roasted to perfection by their friends over at Sump Coffee — a coffee shop and roastery crowned “extraordinary” by NYC’s esteemed Grub Street Mag
Each decadent sip also holds amazing single-origin Mexican coffee notes: a gentle fruitiness, roasty burnt caramel, and even more layers of chocolate.
It tastes like a rich pecan, caramel, and dark cacao brownie, dunked right into a cup of some of the best artisanal, pour-over coffee you can find. A hint of lactose adds a sweet vanilla bean ice cream-esque finish to round out the whole experience!
Those who’ve tried this almost sinfully-good Stout have a few choice thoughts:
- “Have had it before and will most certainly have it again. My favorite coffee stout. Cannot recommend this one enough.” @Kyle S.
- “How many times can I close my eyes and say “umm that’s good?” @Tia H.
- “This beer was f****** phenomenal.” @Stefan A.
With fan endorsement like that, it’s easy to see that this isn’t a Stout to pass up. Especially since each year Perennial Ales and Sump like to mix up their coffee — this will probably be the only time they offer this amazing Oaxacan single-origin version!
*For an optimal drinking experience, Perennial suggests keeping these Stouts cool!

A really good imperial stout. The coffee is not overwhelming and feels like just the right balance. I don’t think this is too sweet at all. Some jammy stout with syrup get to be much sweeter than this one. I have found I don’t like overly sweet beer. This is not one of those.

This is definitely the pinnacle of coffee stouts. If anything it drinks like a thick, black coffee. Clear coffee flavor. Great Stout aroma. Almost no hit of alcohol. I feel like it could have more depth to it. Maybe a different coffee blend, but outstanding nonetheless.

Very smooth caramel and coffee flavors meld amazingly with chocolate malts in the stout base. Slight bitterness enhances the overall taste.

Big coffee nose. Pours like motor oil - thick as mud. Creamy & luscious mouthfeel. On the palate, big roasty coffee, w/bittersweet chocolate & subtle vanilla & nuttiness. Amazing. Note: can says “11.5ABV” & Untappd has it at 10.5, but who’s counting.

Ordered from Tavour. Chilled and poured into an imperial pint glass. Look: dark brown, almost black, dark tan creamy three finger head that cascaded. Hard poured and overflowed the glass. The lacing is a beautiful tan clinging lace that hangs to the side of the glass Smell: sweet day old cold coffee, dark roast and almost a hint of vanilla Taste: sweet day old coffee, roasty notes, lingering sweet, hints of booze Feel: full mouthfeel, super creamy feel with not tickle of carbonation at all. Syrupy and thick Perennial is a super creative brewer and this is a fun, sweet, creamy coffee stout that hides the booze well. Love this beer personally, but then again there are two drinks in my every day, coffee and beer... put them together and you got me. Cheers everyone!

Pretty sure it’s one of the OG coffee stouts and still one of the best. I miss the romanticism of the 750, but the new size and artwork are epic. Pours oily thick with layers of rich roast. ☕️😋 Proof stouts can be adjucted without being pastry.
