Mikkie = Cattivella is a Crème Brûlée Stout Brewed by Peter van der Arend & Giovanni Campari.
Mikkie = Cattivella is the housebeer of 'cause BEER loves FOOD, but also available at the other Morebeer bars; Proeflokaal Arendsnest, BeerTemple en Craft & Draft.
Stout is also the dutch word for 'naughty' which inspired Peter to name the beer Cattivella, which means 'cheeky' in Italian. And as far as the name Mikkie is concerned, well, Peter knows who she is.

Bottle bought from Beertemple in Amsterdam. Pours a thick dark brew with a fine espresso-colourd head. Smells great, vanilla, maple syrup, caramel and milk chocolate. The taste falls a bit short, with notes of vanilla up front, but other than that an average stout, watery, dry and with a harsh bitterness in the aftertast.

You more or less do not need a dessert if you get a hand on this one. Floating crème brule. A good cake or some ice cream would company this one really well.
Almost complete blac pour with a big fluffy beige head. Nice intensity in the aroma. Medium + body. Actually a bit lighter than expected. Nice mellow sweetness. Crème brule, coffee, toffee and vanilla are the most dominant flavors. Easy drinkable and well masked alcohol.
[On tap at Café Sara in Oslo, Norway]

Arends Nest. Keg. Opaque black - brown beer, good tan head. Palate is airy with a fine minerally crispness. Mellow dark malts, a little cream that does indeed develop a mild creme bruless caramel - vanilla vibe. Trace of roast malt bitterness and a little dark chocolate. Airy semi dry finish. Comes together well.

0.33 l bottle from De Bierkoning, best before April 2017 (bottled in March 2015?). Clear, very dark red with a huge, creamy, almost stable, brown head. Sweetish, malty aroma of dark chocolate, toffee, cocoa powder and raisins. Sweetish, malty taste of dark chocolate, cocoa powder, mocha, toffee, nuts and raisins, followed by a short, slightly bitter finish. Medium body, creamy and smooth mouthfeel, average carbonation. Delicious, close to drinking liquid chocolate while the light fruity note adds some depth.
