"Sip and Puff" is the personal blog of food & beverage writer James Liska. That's me! Since 2012, I've written about wine, beer, spirits, food, and restaurants. I focus on fundamental information, tasting notes, and overall thoughts rather than scores, harsh criticism, or arbitrary ratings. This supplements my other work such as writing for District Fray Magazine, creating cocktails, and posting more "everyday" stuff through my Instagram, @baconesque. Enjoy!

Beer Flash: Lagunitas Brewing Co.'s "Cappuccino Stout"
Happy Cher-snow-byl! Here at Sip and Puff I'm making the most of being snowed in. Enter an old favorite - Lagunitas' "Cappuccino Stout." Of course, I stuck it in a snowdrift to keep it cold. Gotta make use of Nature's refrigerator!
I've reviewed it before, so I won't go too much into the nuts and bolts, but essentially it's a 9.2% ABV stout made with coffee beans. It's nice and smooth, with good roasted-bean tastes up front and a milky-smooth body, with ground coffee tastes on the finish. Naturally, I had to chill the glass as well - snowbanks also do the trick quite well. It's still coming down out there, so I may do another snowbeer later.
