Beer + Coffee = Strange Love

Some of you will know that I am very fond of Wildebeest, the Imperial espresso chocolate vanilla stout from Wild Beer Company. Generally I prefer stouts and porters, but the idea of adding coffee to beer is gathering momentum and I see via my colleagues at Bristol 24/7 that a local brewery (Wiper and True) has joined forces with a local coffee company (Extract Coffee Roasters) to produce a coffee-flavored ale. I have to admit that IPAs are not one of my favorite things, but how can I resist a beer called Dr. Strangelove? You can learn more about it here.
