A Stout made with Cà Phê Chồn – one of the world’s rarest coffees, imported from Vietnam. Coffee beans are collected, cleaned and roasted after going through the digestive tract of the luwak, a type of civet with very particular tastes. Roasted malt links coffee, citrus and dark chocolate to form a potent brew leading to a hoppy, happy, bitter citrus finish.

(Can, 0.473 l - BB 22.12.2019, at Mikkeller Helsinki, 20191022) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, sweetness, milk chocolate and ash. Palate was full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, sweetness, dark chocolate and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. A way too sweet brew.

Can. Black. Roast, licorice and laurel in the aroma. Full bodied. Malty sweet, roasty flavor with sated licorice. Syrupy. Coffee only in the far background. Decent.

At a tasting, many thanks, almost no head, opaque black color, oily pour, aroma of cocoa, vanila, milk chocolate, flavor of chocolate cake and mocha with a warming alcoholic sensation that blends in very nicely, empathic silky sweetness. Amazingly tasty, really really good.
