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.

The raters who judged this beer to be 92nd percentile are clearly mostly English, as this stout is not as good as is claimed. It is to the classic style, but not very complex, a simple 3-4 malt bill and nothing coming from the yeast. Craft beer dresdn

Flaske fra Kilpishalli. Svart. Høyt luftig lysebrunt skum som daler sakte og etterlater pen lacing. Aroma av sjokolade & lakris. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken lettrøkt malt & sjokolade. Balansert. Kakao i ettersmaken. Bra øl!

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

500ml bottle. Pours a clear dark brown almost black with red hue and a large, creamy, long lasting, tan head that leaves curtains of lace. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel, earth and coffee. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, licorice, caramel and ash with a dry, bitter coffee finish. Medium body with a creamy, smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Decent.
