Double Stout, part of Shepherd Neame’s Classic Collection range of beers, is based on a recipe discovered in a coded brewers’ log unearthed in the brewery archives.
Made with a blend of four different malts with a firm bitterness courtesy of local Kentish hops, it is a velvety smooth beer with dry, burnt flavours and cocoa and coffee notes.

As usual it is a nice stout, solid roasted malt, coffee, cacao, hop, we could say that it is a dry stout, just a pleasure, 11.04.17, at Prélaz, purchased at one coop, Prilly.

Bottle on 26th October 2025 from JDS via Deliveroo. Pours an inky black with dull tan foam and scant lacing. Earthy peat, dark chocolate and smoky spices in aroma. Intense roastiness in-mouth with tangy spices, coffees and bitter chocolate. A satisfying roasty finish. Medium to full bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. Enjoyable.

0.5 l bottle from 'Trinkgut Knödgen', best before February 2024. Clear, very dark ruby to black with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty and slightly fruity aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted hazelnut, some oats and a touch of raisins. Gently sweet, malty, quite roasty, a little fruity taste of dark chocolate, lots of coffee, roasted hazelnut, some licorice and a touch of raisins, followed by a medium long, quite roasty-bitter finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Good Stout, hard to believe it's only got 5.2% abv. Benchmark stuff.
