Sofee Puts a Twist on Canned Coffee Beverages
Laura McQuarrie — September 7, 2020 — Lifestyle
Sofee appeals to coffee lovers and carbonated beverage fans alike with its slightly sweet carbonated coffee drinks. The beverages are available in a handful of varieties, including The Purist, The Masochist for those who love a heavy dose of caffeine and The Hedonist, which combines the taste of coffee, orange and chocolate. Similarly, The Escapist also shares a taste of chocolate with notes of cinnamon and pepper.
The canned coffee beverages were inspired by a passion for homebrewing beer and roasting coffee beans. As founder Chad Hazen describes: "I figured there was an intersection between the two, so I kegged some cold brew with a bit of sweetener and skipped the fermentation."
Sofee also offers The Alchemist cold brew with creamy, non-dairy oat milk and The Nihilist, which boasts no sugar or carbs.
