Creamy caramel sauce, butterscotch, and flaky salt – a delicious candied latte.14 of 20
Raven's Wing Schwarzbier

Raven's Wing Schwarzbier is dark as any stout, but, as a black lager, extremely light in body and very crisp. All the roasty, chocolatey goodness remains, but the chewiness is replaced by a mild dark breadiness and a very mild, coffee-like finish.15 of 20

Safai Coffee
Frozen spiced brown sugar latte, topped with whip cream and house blueberry pie filling.16 of 20
