The story of Bhutan begins with a dragon, with thunder in its voice and fire in its heart. It’s the perfect symbol for our Dragon Stout.
Liberal amounts of chocolate malt and roasted barley are added to this beer to give it a deep, dark, black colour as well as lots of coffee and chocolate aromas. The roasted malts will give a slight astringency to the beer, which will be balanced by a slight sweetness added by the Crystal malt.
Magnum hops are used to bitter the beer as they produce a clean, neutral bitterness.
The bitterness given by the hops will accentuate the roasty characteristics of the beer. However, Dragon Stout is in the low end of the bitterness range for stouts so that the consumer may drink more than one in a sitting.

Can and sample courtesy of Thomas - cheers! Pours almost black with a frothy/creamy off-white to beige head. Aroma of moderate roasted coffee, chocolate, malt, vanilla and a hint of liquorice. Moderate sweetness, light to moderate bitterness. Medium body, slightly oily and watery texture, average to soft carbonation. Milky chocolate and light roasted bitterness to finish. Surprisingly good.

Many thanks to Nisse666 for this rare sample. Country #176. Great dark malty nose. The beer starts dry with lots of chocolate and roast. Nice and smooth. Caramel, roasted espresso, nice bittered. Fresh aftertaste of hazelnuts and dry toffee. Really a good stout!
