Caramel, roasted, black and chocolate malts provide an explosion of coffee like flavors.
The strong espresso character comes from the addition of espresso beans to the boil.
Notes of vanilla, dark fruit , cocao and chocolate.
The very unusual character of Hitachino Nest Espresso Stout stems from the fact that Kiuchi Brewery is using the recipe of a Russian Imperial Stout as base.
Pitch black color, big brown head. Aromas of chocolate, roasted bitterness, black currants, dark fruits.
Hop: Chinook, Kent Golding
Malt: Pale, Crystal, Black, Chocolate
Others: Roasted Barley, Coffee beans
SRM: 100

Fles gekocht in Luxemburg, geprobeerd met Roelzie1986. Het is een donker zwart bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een gebrande koffie achtige geur. De smaak is gebrande koffie, chocolade en bitter.
