Named after the legendary chocolatier Henri Le Roux, the creator of Salted Caramel dessert that took the world by storm in the 1970's.

This rich and indulgent stout has a chocolate malt base, that is then infused with caramel, Maldon sea salt and then an addition of lactose to give a smooth richness. A truly decadent and indulgent stout.

Tastes like it says it should. Salted caramel deliciousness. Further down there’s a bit of bitterness which is interesting. Bit burnt and smoky. Is very nice but a bit confusing. Amazing taste for the strength or is it just all syrup or something? Some kind of maple story thing going on too.

One-third on tap, sample tray at Hammerton Brewery`s taproom. Jet black in the glass, low beige head leaving spotty lacing on the glass. Inviting on the nose with cocoa powder and grainy chocolate, lightly roasted. Mid-sweet taste profile of caramel-chocolate and an input of nuts, lactose beneath. Smoothly roasted end. Medium bodied. Pretty good. (London, 08.12.2023).

On tap at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Black pour with a tan head. Rich chocolaty nose, touch of cocoa, raisin, creamy coffee. Taste is dark chocolate, chocolate cake, caramel, toffee, vanilla fudge. Long lasting sweet finish. Liquid chocolate, top stuff 😋
