Call for Entry: “FLUID” Art Exhibition at Four Barrel Coffee

Neither can we. Here’s the deal: The incredible new ice-cold kegs of not-cold-brew coffee that we’ve been trying to perfect for, oh, maybe forever (but who’s counting) are finally ready.

We serve it at The Mill, as well as Four Barrel in the Mission District, and SF's Portola neighborhood. Some of our friends around the Bay Area are also bringing in our kegs this week. Soon we'll offer kegs up north in Portland and down south in LA.  

When we say #notcoldbrew, what we mean is that we extract this coffee hot, at a temperature that makes scientific good sense. Then we immediately cool it way down without the intrusion of oxygen and other funky stuff. We're using only sweet and seasonal fully washed high-elevation Arabica coffees from East Africa for all of our bright, crisp, and clean offerings.

When we say offerings, what we mean is that we’re offering three different kinds of kegs:

LIMELIGHT: A light-roasted, bright & floral, fresh & fruity offering (currently Kenya Sawa Sawa)
HOUDINI: A body-driven, sweet & syrupy result of dark arts, science, & magic (currently Ethiopia Qorema)
NITRO: All the sweetness of HOUDINI, infused with the creamy lusciousness of nitrogen.

When we say Nitro, we say it with a deep and whispering voice, pretending that we’re bad guys in Fast & Furious Part Twelve, and “Nitro” is the name of our custom motorcycle-tank-rocket.

And if you know someone who would like a couple kegs delivered to their cafe, restaurant, bar, or office, please have them zap us an email right now to this very real email address that we honestly check every day:

Since we opened in 2008, we’ve received numerous inquiries from potential investors such as yourself. Our response has always been the same: Just leave the cash in an envelope on the bed stand, as usual.

But as of today, all that has changed. Yes, here's your chance to turn millions in real estate into a break-even proposition—no questions asked!

If you're anything like us, you hate us, but love our coffee.

We totally get it. If it weren't for the fact that we make such great coffee, we couldn't stand to see ourselves in our bathroom mirror every morning.

That's why were pleasantly pleased to propose purchase of these premium near-professional pieces of near-perfection.

This is it, folks. It’s finally December. 

2016 is officially coming to a close and there’s one thing most of us can agree on: Everyone who works here, and everyone reading this post, is a human being. 

Human beings suck at a lot of things, but we’re generally very good at finding the positives among the negatives. Seeing the silver lining at the end of the tunnel. Starting fresh. 

And that’s how we’re choosing to end 2016 around here. We are, after all, based in the freshest city of fresh starts, a city founded on the idea of reinventing yourself,... read more...
