I've had their coffee before. It was very good! Unfortunately it was also very expensive (for me anyway.)

I love their coffee, especially the CAF blend. But it is rather pricey. I’m will to spend that for a veteran owned company though. Many veteran employees also. I think they donate a bag of coffee to deployed troops, which is appealing to me.

My sister gave me a bag of this coffee for Christmas. It is great coffee and I'll probably buy more.
I've been drinking their dark roast "BB" Beyond Black for about a year now. It is REALLY GOOD COFFEE. We go through about a 5lb bag every other month. With shipping and sales tax it comes to about $81.00 for the 5lb bag.
I recently tried their extra dark roast "MO" MURDERED OUT. It is definitely mot an "After Dinner" coffee unless you want to be up most of the night.
Too bad "MO" doesn't come in the 5lb bags. Checking my order history the 12 oz. bag runs $23.49 including shipping and tax.

A relatively new LGS in my area sells it and has a pot of it on all day, free to anyone who comes in. Tried it, really enjoyed it.
Bought a pound, but it's really too expensive for regular consumption.

This! Just a bit pricey for my taste.

I've never drank their coffee. But their attempts at comedy are lame.

Isn't everyone on this forum rich enough to not worry about the price of coffee? Now, the price of smokeless powder is something completely different -$30/lb! Wow!
Folgers or Maxwell House is more of my price range.

I drink Folgers on a daily basis but do keep BRCC around for guests, special occasions and for when I feel like it. I like to support them. The JB is one of the best coffees I've tried if you like plain black coffee. I also tried SS, but it seems to be a little on the weak side. I just picked up two bags of their Thin Blue Line and it is also an excellent coffee. I'd rather pay a couple bucks more to support them than some of the other coffee companies with questionable political ties and backers like Starbucks.

There is an "Invader" brand coffee which also claims to be roasted by veterans in Austin TX.

I am not a coffee drinker, so I have no dog in this fight. But some here might wish to try it. At $17 per bag.

Funny how most folks think that "dark roast" or "french roast" coffee has more caffeine. Actually, the darker roast coffee's have less caffeine, with one caveat.....that they are composed of 100% Arabica bean coffee.
The companies that boast about their coffee products as having very high caffeine content boost the caffeine in their coffee blends with Robusta coffee beans....which contain approx. twice as much caffeine as typical Arabica beans. Companies like "Death Wish" and their "Valhalla" blend actually boast about the roast....the caffeine content of their coffees. I'm not sure if Black Rifle adds any Robusta to their blends or not, but they are tasty, and pricey.

Good stuff. My son gave us 4 bags for Christmas. I just used an Amazon gift card a student gave me toward a pound of Blue Horse Kona beans @ $44 per. Joe
I have had it several times and found it quite good although a bit pricey for everyday consumption.
BRCC seems to be a fun, solidly run company that does a lot to support veterans and the employees love it there.
It checks a lot of boxes for me.

Little pricey for my wallet but my daughter gets me a sampler box for b-day, xmas, dad's day, etc. The ladies seems to prefer Silencer Smooth, which is very smooth with no bitterness. I've tried the Just Black, Beyond Black, Murdered Out, CAF (hafta check BRCC's site for full name) but my all-around favorite currently is AK47 Espresso.
In addition to their coffee, I enjoy their videos and even their business plan. No hipster coffee for me.

I buy some on occasion for my wife and daughters who are very into coffee. I am wearing one of their camo hoodies right now. Seems like a win win to me.
