Dark Night of the Soul

In a small pot, combine the crushed espresso beans, water and sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the mixture has reduced by half. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the espresso beans, and allow to cool.

Then, combine the ale, bourbon and syrup in a glass or shaker. Shake or stir until well combine, and enjoy.
