Sweet, roasty and always invigorating, traditional Latin American cafe con leche coffee can be found nearly everywhere in our hometown of Tampa, Florida and serves as the inspiration for our Cafe Con Leche Sweet Stout. The beer is made with bold, strong coffee beans to emulate the most characterful Cuban espresso and lactose, a milk sugar that adds sweetness, body and flavors reminiscent of scalded milk. We've also added cacao nibs to further enhance the satisfying chocolate quality of the beer. Despite it's assertive flavors and full body, our sweet stout is deceptively low in alcohol, making it the perfect accompaniment to a late-morning plate of eggs, bacon and tostadas.

Flaska från SB. Doft och smak med kaffe i förgrunden, tätt efterföljd av laktos och därefter kakao, vanilj, mjölkchoklad, toffee och en något nötig ton. Mjuk och len munkänsla utan att det blir för mjölkigt. Lättare kropp som gör den lite stram och ungefär som att dricka en kopp kaffe. Snygga smaker som håller ihop väl. Mycket gott.

(650ml bottle from Systembolaget) Pours pitch black with a small stable mocha-coloured head. Notes of quite burnt malt, ash, very earthy black coffee, unsweetened chocolate, lightly sweet malted/scalded milk vibe, a little caramel. Despite the style, only lightly sweet up front and very dry on the finish. Lots of bitter coffee and burnt, ashy roast on the finish. Slight lingering lactose creaminess. Light to medium bodied and rather softly carbonated. Not really sweet for a sweet stout but a nice roasty flavourful low-alcohol stout nonetheless.

Bottle, courtesy of SinH4, thanks! Pours darkest brown with a brown head. Aroma is green peppers, coffee beans, cocoa nibs. Body is medium, strongly bitter but also lactic milky sweet. Still mostly coffee with cocoa, also peppers and caramel. Smooth and harmonic. Dryish palate with lingering flavours. Very good!

Appearance is black, with a foamy beige covering. Aroma- lots of coffee, milk chocolate, biscuity malt, dark malts, hint of dark fruits, some vanilla, more milky coffee. Taste- coffee dominates, dark sweet malts, chocolate biscuit, sugary milky coffee, cocoa, biscuity malt. Smooth mouthfeel, fairly rich despite the abv.
