Malted barley, oats. The equivalent to Table Beer in our range of stouts and porters. Not brewed to 'dry stout'-style, per se, but a stout that is dry. Light-bodied but not thin, with more prominent kettle-hopping and then dry-hopping to add some brightness and contrast to the roasty, biscuity, and savoury character of the dark malts.

I'm not a huge fan of Dry Stouts, but this is definitely solid.

Color marrón oscuro, opaca, genera gran cantidad de espuma muy cremosa de extraordinariamente larga retención y abundante residuo. Aroma donde se siente muy presente el fondo lupulado rico en matiz herbal y resinoso, además de notas de chocolate, galleta tostada y cierto recuerdo ahumado. En boca la textura puede sentirse algo acuosa en el primer sorbo, pero poco a poco las 'virtudes' de este brebaje vienen a cambiar bastante está sensación, buena carbonatación, fondo resinoso, notas de pan quemado, cacao puro y ceniza, final equilibradamente amargo Eructos lupulados a la par que achocolatado.. En general una bonita e interesante experiencia con esta cerveza, muy buena.

Certainly dry as advertised. Classic style. I do think the body comes across slightly thin and could be a more complex flavourful drink. Spuyt ams

On tap at In de Wildeman, pours jet black with a medium beige head. Aroma is full of roasted malt, strong piney hops, and some earthiness. Flavour is ridiculously deep for a ~4% stout — loads of roasted malt, strong piney hops, and some earthiness. Roasty, hoppy, in wonderful balance. Excellent.

Cask at Alexandra, Derby. Pours very dark reddish-brown with minimal cream head and good lacing. Aroma is mainly roasted malts with just a hint of ginger. Roast malts to the fore in the mouth as well, with some floral hops, liquorice and dark fruits plus traces of citrus and summer fruits. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. Quite nice – though I wouldn’t say it was particularly dry.
