Cocktail

2 oz London dry gin

1 oz Brewed cold-brew coffee (concentrate)

1/2 oz Coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)

1/2 oz Amaro (or bitter herbal liqueur)

1/4 oz Simple syrup (1:1)

1/2 oz Fresh lemon juice

4 oz Cold nitro or stout beer (can)

2 dashes Angostura bitters

Garnish & ice

1 to taste Large ice cube(s)

1 piece Orange twist

1/4 tsp Freshly ground coffee (optional, for rim)

Method

Prep

Chill glass and beer

Place a rocks glass or short stemmed beer glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. Keep the can of nitro or stout beer chilled until ready to pour.

If you want a coffee-rimmed glass, wet the rim lightly with a lemon wedge and dip in a shallow plate with finely ground coffee (optional).

Build the cocktail

Combine base spirits

In a cocktail mixing glass filled with ice, add 2 oz London dry gin, 1 oz cold-brew coffee concentrate, 0.5 oz coffee liqueur, 0.5 oz amaro, 0.25 oz simple syrup, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

Stir and chill

Stir the mixture briskly for 20–30 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted (use a bar spoon and large circular motion).

Strain

Remove the chilled glass from the freezer and strain the stirred cocktail into the glass over one large ice cube (or several smaller cubes).

Top with beer

Slowly pour or gently float 4 oz of the chilled nitro or stout beer over the back of a spoon onto the cocktail to create a layered effect. Pour gently to preserve the beer’s head.

Finish & serve

Express an orange twist over the drink to release oils, then drop the twist into the cocktail as garnish.

Serve immediately with a short straw or without; encourage the drinker to enjoy the contrast of bitter coffee, herbal amaro, bright lemon and the creamy beer head.
