Half Full Brewery debuts Rise & Grind nitro hard coffee

Stamford”™s Half Full Brewery is expanding its product line with its first nonbeer offering: Rise & Grind, a nitro hard coffee.

Created in collaboration with another Stamford company, RISE Brewing Co., Rise & Grind is made from organic coffee and malt and contains 90mg of caffeine per 11oz can with a 5% ABV. The product contains only naturally occurring alcohol created from the fermentation process.

“Nothing energizes us more at Half Full than doing collaborations with others in our community,” said Conor Horrigan, founder and “chief hoptimist” at Half Full Brewery. “RISE has always echoed this sentiment and Rise & Grind blends the best aspects of our companies ”“ creativity, innovation, passion, malt and coffee ”“ into a unique new beverage and category.”

Rise & Grind is now available in four-packs of 11 ounce cans at Half Full Brewery”™s headquarters and is scheduled to be available in Connecticut retail outlets later this year.
