eball Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Found this in an ESPN article about the best NFL-themed beers and I have admittedly never heard of it. Clever though... Make Me Wanna Stout | Big Ditch Brewing Co. | Buffalo, New York Make Me Wanna Stout was so popular during football season that it's now available year-round in Western New York. Courtesy of Buffalo News Tribute to: Bills' fight song, "Shout" Beer style: Coffee and cream stout Alcohol by volume (ABV): 5.2% When it was brewed: It was first made in 2016, but Big Ditch started canning it only last year. It became so popular around Western New York that it eventually became available year-round. Why a coffee and cream stout? Here's what president and co-founder Matt Kahn had to say: "We were looking for something that was good for pregaming. Pregaming is a well-partaken-in tradition for Buffalo Bills fans, you could say, both at home and at the stadium. We were sort of thinking, 'Hey, wake up, have your coffee with your beer, too.' The ABV is light enough that you can get a few in you, get some caffeine in you, too. It's a good wake-up-and-go beer. It's almost like a can of alcoholic iced coffee." Key ingredients: Coffee (the beans come from a local roaster called Public Espresso), milk, sugar, roasted barley, oatmeal, U.S. Northern Brewer hops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngjebrey Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 The thought of drinking a milk stout in this summer heat is vomit inducing. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 .....not an NFL themed one, but most in WNY know about Zweigles hot dogs (THE best).....but hot dog flavored beer does sound disgusting.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Do not drink coffee so would never try it. It would sell better in Hawaii where people watch game with breakfast. I watched games there for a number of years when I would go to Hawaii for Christmas and would see guys eating eggs and drinking beer and coffee.

I like beer and I like Zweigles, but I don't know if I could drink this. Cheers to those who try -- they are braver than I. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything Big Ditch does is related to the Erie Canal or Buffalo. They do a nice job with that. The name big ditch is the nickname for the canal, for example.

They are not hot dog flavored, they are designed to be paired best with a red or white hot. Still not gonna try one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
