The Guinness Cold Brew Coffee Beer is a new product from the iconic Irish beer brand that's perfect for avid coffee drinkers or libation enthusiasts alike to try out. Coming in a 440ml can, the beer features a blend of cold-brew coffee along with the brand's traditional Guinness stout. The product is arriving at Tesco locations with a gradual roll out to convenience stores and wholesalers taking place throughout April, May and June.
Head of Guinness GB John Burns commented on the new Guinness Cold Brew Coffee Beer saying, "We firmly believe we have created a taste experience truly unrivalled in the market. With more than 95 million cups of coffee being consumed every day in Great Britain alone, now is the moment to offer a product that plays to an excitingly vast consumer space. There is already a natural connection with coffee notes in Guinness’ signature offerings like Draught and Extra Stout, so the creation of Guinness cold-brew coffee beer was a perfect match.”
