# Beer-Flavored Coffees Black and Blue Delivers the Taste of Beer in an Iced-Coffee on Tap By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2015-05-11 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beerflavored-coffee References: [bonappetit](http://www.bonappetit.com/drinks/non-alcoholic/article/nitro-coffee) & [facebook](https://www.facebook.com/CuveeCoffee/timeline) Cuvée Coffee is now producing its Black and Blue [nitrogen-infused beer-flavored coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caffreys-black-stout) in a [convenient canned package](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vanilla-cold-brew-draft-latte). Until recently, Black and Blue coffee was only available on tap at a number of locations throughout Austin Texas, but with its new nitro cans, the beer-flavored coffees can be enjoyed on the go as well. Black and Blue coffee is treated with nitrogen and carbon dioxide under high pressure, which gives the [traditional cold-brew coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bero-coffee-draught) a creative beer-inspired twist. The unique treatment of Black and Blue provides a rich and creamy body, with a thick head similar to a stout. As far as flavor, the tiny bubbles in the coffee provide bittersweet chocolate notes, making the taste less acidic than large-batch cold brews. With its new nitro cans, you can now enjoy Black and Blue's refreshing beer-flavored coffees at anytime. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nitro-infused Beverages:** There is an opportunity for businesses to explore the trend of infusing nitrogen into various beverages to create unique flavors and textures. - **Flavored Cold Brews:** Entrepreneurs can capitalize on the growing demand for flavored cold brew coffees that go beyond traditional flavors. - **Convenient On-the-go Packaging:** There is a disruptive innovation opportunity in developing packaging solutions that allow consumers to enjoy craft beverages on the go. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Craft Coffee:** Craft coffee companies can leverage the trend of nitro-infused beverages and flavored cold brews to create unique and innovative coffee offerings. - **Craft Beer:** Craft breweries can explore the trend of beer-flavored coffees and collaborate with coffee companies to develop interesting beer-inspired coffee creations. - **Beverage Packaging:** The beverage packaging industry can tap into the demand for convenient on-the-go packaging solutions for nitro-infused and craft beverages. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Canned Nitro-Infused Cold Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitroinfused-cold-coffee.md) - [Alcoholic Cold-Brew Coffee Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cold-brew-coffee-beer.md) - [Hoppy Beer-Like Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hopped-up-coffee.md) - [Textural Sweet Cold Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitro-sweet-cold-brew.md) - [Spirit-Infused Nitro Cold Brews](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiritinfused-nitro-cold-brew.md) - [Canned Nitro Coffee Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fire-department-coffee-nitro-cold-brew.md) - [Spirit-Based Cold Brews](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hard-cold-brews.md) - [Nitro-Infused Cold Irish Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coldbrewed-irish-coffee.md) - [Coffee-Inspired Beer Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunkin-and-harpoon-brewery.md)
