If you're seeking coffee with friendly service, then you may want to head to Dutch Bros. The drive-thru coffee brand is known for its friendly "broistas" who chat with you as if they actually enjoy it (and perhaps they do). 

Dutch Bros Golden Eagle Iced or Hot Coffee

There are plenty of coffee drinks to pick from on the Dutch Bros menu, one of which is called the Golden Eagle. Dutch Bros has a range of signature drinks that you can find on the Dutch Faves portion of the menu, including others like the Kicker, Annihilator, Caramelizer, Cocomo, Double Torture, and 911. 

But you're to learn about the Dutch Bros Golden Eagle drink. 

What's in the Dutch Bros Golden Eagle?

What does the Dutch Bros Golden Eagle taste like?

The Golden Eagle is pretty sweet with a mainly caramel-forward profile. As you can see, the caramel started to pool at the bottom of the drink, but you can mix it up to get the caramel spread throughout the drink.

What's a Breve? 

A breve coffee drink usually means that the espresso is paired with half and half, instead of milk. So it creates an ultra-rich base for your coffee. However, you can always customize your drink to swap the milk, use a non-dairy option, add drizzles, or other options.

Can I get a Sugar-Free Golden Eagle Dutch Bros?

Why, yes, you can. Dutch Bros offers a range of sugar-free options if you want to limit your sugar intake. This drink has espresso, sugar-free vanilla syrup, and sugar-free caramel sauce. There is a bit of an aftertaste that you may associate with sugar-free drinks, but there's a lot of flavors going on, so that works to the drink's advantage. 

If you like caramel drinks, then this is a top pick for you. It's definitely a sweet coffee drink, but you could always ask for light/less sauce or even upgrade to get another shot.

Customization Ideas for the Dutch Bros Golden Eagle

Swap the standard breve (half-and-half) for a lighter or dairy-free option:

  • Oat milk – smooth, slightly sweet, still creamy

  • Almond milk – nuttier, thinner texture, fewer calories

  • Coconut milk – subtle tropical note that pairs nicely with caramel

  • 2% milk or whole milk – for less fat than breve but still creamy

  • Half Sweet – ask for half the amount of syrups; flavor’s still strong

  • Sugar-Free Vanilla + Sugar-Free Caramel – available at most stands

  • Extra Drizzle or No Drizzle – more or less caramel topping

  • Add Toffee Nut or Brown Sugar Cinnamon Syrup – richer, fall-style twist

  • Swap Vanilla for White Chocolate – turns it into a dessert-coffee hybrid
