In the 1930s one of the Black Eagle Brewery’s bottled beers was a single stout named Family Stout. It was sold under the Bushell’s name as the business was called Bushell, Watkins and Smith. We have reprised this Family Stout at the same strength of as the original at 4.5% ABV to put alongside our very popular Double Stout which weighs in at 5.1% ABV.

Cask. A black beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, bread, and chocolate, leading to a dry finish.

Fra cask på Mossy Well Muswell Hill nov-18: brunsvart med ok skum. Espresso, mørke malter, fin urtebitterhed. Tørr avslutning, slank og elegant. Eminent drikkbar med mørk sjokolade helt i slutten.

Cask at Baxer’s Court, JDW - Hackney. Pours deep brown with a lasting, frothy beige head; looks good. The nose holds moderate roasted malts, milk chocolate and hints of toasted leaves. Light to medium sweet flavour, with further milk chocolate, light bittersweet baking cocoa, some slightly tangy dark berries, a little earth and ash. Light bodied with fine to average carboantion; pretty good condition. Somewhat drying on the finish, with further ashy roast, bittersweet cocoa, dried fruits, raisins. Respectable.
