Brewed with coffee and vanilla.
We aren't sweet tooths, especially not in combination with beer, therefore we always said to each other that we wouldn't brew a Pastry Stout. Ever! But a couple of weeks ago, our headbrewer Merijn betrayed us, the bastard! While thinking to do something special with our Grom, he took a sip of his coffee and got an epiphany. "What if…I infuse it with some robust coffee, sweet vanilla and a pinch of lactose to give it a creamy touch?!". So is it a Pastry Stout? Well, maybe it is, but it is definitely one on Bliksem's terms and the 44cl can deserves our logo on it. And while drinking this enchanting elixir we have to think how to punish betrayer Merijn. Some pain will last…

Cremiger, intensiv malziger Beginn mit viel Kaffee. Moderate, nicht zu starke Süße, weiche Vanillearomen im Hintergrund. Weich röstig, kaum bitter, die Süße steigt ein wenig an. Schokoladig, langer malziger Kaffeeabgang, gut. 9/12/11/11/12/12

Blik thuis geprobeerd. Het is een diep donkerbruin bier met een volle bruinige schuimkraag. Het heeft een zoete vanille achtige geur. De smaak is vol, gebrande mout, koffie en vanille met een lekkere koffie bittere afdronk.

44 cl. can shared with Rick @ home, bought @ Kulenborgse Bierhandel. Dark brown with a big beige head. Roasted malts aroma with vanilla and coffee. Sweet taste with a sweet creamy finish. Great, not too sweet, pastry stout.

Very dark brown with thin head. Aroma and flavour have plenty of heavily roasted bitter coffee. Not overly sweet. Well made.
