Collaboration with our friends at Nepo Brewing in Szkaradowo, Poland.

Cacao and layered malt nuance dominate in this delicious cold weather sipper. Aroma’s of dark fruit weave seamlessly with espresso and chocolate, balanced by vanilla. With a silky body and an easy finish, this nod to a traditional style from our Polish visitors will go down a little too easy. Cheers!

On tap at WBF 2025, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has plenty of vanilla, dry cocoa, toasted malt, and some fermented out dark sugars. Flavour is full-bodied, with vanilla, toasted malt, and cocoa. Deep maltiness and wonderfully structured. Excellent.
