Great beer – but very little caffeine. The total amount of caffeine is under 10g per bottle. Thre are some, however, like Twisted Pine and Great Divide brewing that pack a very serious caffeine whallop!

As a resident of the Aloha state, let me tell you this is one of my favorite beers. Unfortunately, it’s a seasonal brew, and there’s not much to do in the downtime, but wait for when it’s available again. The coffee flavor is subtle, but palpable. It is a porter, and as such, is quite flavorful.

There is another beer that has yet to be distributed across the mainland called Coconut Porter. It’s also a locally brewed beer (Maui Brewing Company), and except for the hops, all ingredients are locally grown. In fact, they’re currently experimenting on growing hops for their beers on the Big Island. This has a chocolate malt, with a hint of coconut, and a trace of coffee flavor.

i’ve had it last year, and i really enjoyed the pipeline porter. the coffee flavor is strong enough that it is definitely there, but this is still a beer with coffee flavor, not the other way around.
i had it in washington, so i’m pretty sure they do a wider distribution that just hawaii, though it’ll probably be rare.
also, a second for the lagunitas cappuccino stout. it’s pretty damn solid as well.

I’ve had it, the coffee flavor is not that strong. There are other coffee beers, though, that will get you buzzed and uh, buzzed. Stouts and porters with coffee are not uncommon.
PS I got this beer in California.

Why wait for that when you can easily get a nice Cappuccino Stout from the Lagunitas Brewery. (it’s prolly a lot cheaper too)
