    Good taste

    Well packaged, and good value compared to cost in store. The canned cold brew has a good taste, chills well, and is easy to drink for people who like cold brew.

    Great coffee, very convenient, high price tag

    I will be the first to admit, these things taste great but are simply too expensive. I continue to drink them because I am hooked, and I really enjoy the convenience of being able to grab a quick nitro cold brew as I head out to work, but if they get much more expensive I just won't be able to justify it anymore.
