\"New<\/a>Rare and special beers are what Geoi Bachoua<\/strong> is all about.

Last year, he impressed local ale enthusiast with a special India pale ale developed by Alpine Beer Co.<\/strong><\/a> When deciding how to folly up that hoppy offering, Bachoua turned to not one, but two <\/em>local businesses with solid reputations for quality craftsmanship\u2014New English Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a> and Dark Horse Coffee Roasters<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bine and Vine\u2019s fourth anniversary beer is called Adams Avenue Imperial Porter. Coming in at 8.5% alcohol-by-volume, the dark, English-style ale was brewed with medium-roast Guatemalan coffee from Dark Horse, one of San Diego\u2019s hottest roasters. They just happen to be Bine & Vine\u2019s neighbor, whereas New English is based in Sorrento Valley.<\/p>\n

Upping the intrigue for this beer is New English\u2019s recent win at the Great American Beer Festival<\/strong><\/a>. The largest, most prestigious annual brewing competition in the country, GABF issued New English a gold medal for Zumbar, an imperial stout brewed chocolate and\u2026coffee, making that the best coffee beer in the U.S. for the calendar year. It stands to reason that java expertise should serve this beer well. Adams Avenue Imperial Porter is scheduled for bottling today and should be available exclusively at Bine & Vine soon after.
