Light & smooth with creamy notes of cocoa, this Chocolate White Stout is the perfect backdrop for a winter day.

A medium-bodied brew, Backdrop is silky & slightly sweet, finishing with a gentle earthy bitterness.

Rich and roasted, featuring real cocoa husks and nibs, this Chocolate White Stout holds its own in our limited release line-up.

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has gentle notes of cocoa upfront, with toasted malt, maybe a subtle coffee undertone. Flavour is fairly subdued, with gentle cocoa upfront, a touch of vanillin, and soft toasted malt. Hard to see the point of this—certainly not worth calling a stout, but more like a golden ale with subtle cocoa undertones. Inoffensive but puzzlingly boring.

473ml can. Pours a clear gold with plenty of floaties and a small, foamy, short lived, white head that laces. Mild aroma of toasted bready malt, chocolate and floral hops. Sweet flavour of toasted bready malt, vanilla, mild chocolate and spicy hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light to medium body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Flavours were too subtle and not very stout-like. A little disappointing.
