New Coffee, New Beer, Same Old Local Love!

We’re switching things up here at Boundary Bay Brewery!  For years now we’ve been serving Tony’s Coffee and we decided that we’d rather work with a local coffee roaster since our community and local economy are so important to us.  We are very pleased to announce that we are now serving delicious coffee locally roasted by Bellingham Bay Coffee Roasters.  Especially because, just like us, they’re family owned and operated!  They’ve even created a special blend just for us – the Boundary Bay blend.

The blend they created for us here at Boundary is comprised of coffees coming from South and Central America, as well as Africa. It’s a medium-dark roast and it is hand roasted by Fernando & Emma Torres (who run Bellingham Bay Coffee Roasters) using a drum-roaster with no computers, or profiling equipment. The entire roasting process is checked using their senses (smell, touch, and visual characteristics of the bean), along with years of experience roasting coffee.  The blend itself offers a nice, dense body, with pleasant, well-balanced acidity, and slight blueberry notes on the finish.

Now, we’re even using their coffee in a new beer of ours: Nitro Header Stout.  This stout is a lighter, dry style blended with their Morning Header Blend and served from a Nitro tap. Their Morning Header is a Dark Roast blend of coffees from South And Central America and is 100% certified Organic.  It has a nice, heavy body with smoky tones and very light acidity.  We’ll have this new beer of ours on tap here at the brewery as of Monday, April 23rd.  You can also find it on tap at the Copper Hog (eventually) and on tap at Civic Field during the Bellingham United soccer team home games.
