Newport and Portland, Oregon-based Rogue Ales & Spirits has announced this year’s winter seasonal Santa’s Private Reserve 2024, a mocha-inspired stout collaboration with Portland Coffee Roasters. It is tradition for Rogue Ales Santa’s Private Reserve to be a completely different beer each year, but always highlighting the flavors of the season. The 2024 release is crafted to express the flavor profile Oregon has come to be known for in both beer and coffee.

More from a press release:

“Every season we begin crafting a new and unique blend for the holiday and this year’s reserve is really bursting with flavor,” said Steven Garrett, President at Rogue Ales & Spirits. “Partnering with Portland Coffee Roasters allowed us to create a brew that highlighted their iconic French roast paired with our love of a chocolate stout. The aroma alone transports you to the feeling of being curled up by the fire with a delicious mocha.”

Santa’s Private Reserve 2024 combines the rich flavors of roasted grains and creamy chocolate with the bold, aromatic essence of high-quality ground French roast coffee. “Working with Rogue Ales for their exclusive holiday beer has been such a delight,” said Coffee Roasters Head of Digital and Ecommerce, Megan Osterhout. “We’ve enjoyed hearing about the brewing process and are excited to taste the flavors of our French roast from first aroma to final sip.” A hint of smokiness rounds out the taste profile to embody a luxurious stout that’s as indulgent as it is complex.
